520 1 $a"The middle of the twentieth century brought an unprecendented peacetime crusade by industrialized nations to transform the Third World. Crucial to this effort was a partnership between the agencies in the developed nations and Third World reformers, and the social institution chosen to lead the great transformation to modernity was the university." "In this study of the attempts to export the modern Western university, its ideas, and its form to the Third World, Daniel C. Levy examines the development assistance provided by the Ford Foundation, the U.S. Agency for International Development, and the Inter-American Development Bank and their relations with local partners in Latin America in the 1960s and 1970s. Levy considers the founders, how they selected partners, which countries and institutions were favored, and to what effect."--BOOK JACKET.
