PERFORMANCE BASED FUNDING OF UNIVERSITIES – CZECH REPUBLIC AND SLOVAKIA (KNIHA JE ZATÍM V TISKU)

The chapter summarizes situation and effects of performance based funding of Universities in two CEE countries - the Czech Republic and Slovakia. Although positive effects can be identified, compared to the developed countries pervasive effects are much more visible. These effects are visible in different forms, like, efforts to create own publication platforms, publishing in predatory journals, creating citation circles, establishing "samizdat" journals, all related to the substitution of quality by quantity.
