dc.description.abstractSince its emergence in the 1800s in Germany, the 'modern' Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) degree has been one of the cornerstones of new knowledge production and research training. Over the past two decades, there has been a surge of debate and reform around doctoral eduction internationally as a result of significant changes in both the global and local contexts within which doctoral education takes place. At the macro level, globalisation and the global economy are redefining what constitutes knowledge, who produces it and for what purposes. At the same time, more than ever before, many governments are depending on doctoral graduates to contribute to achieving national goals. These developments have drawn into question the purpose and form of doctoral programmes and the knowledge products and training outcomes they produce.en_ZA
