By restructuring the context of Taiwan Higher Education Reform, i.e. the stages of extensive and intensive developments, this article attempts to review this book: Globalization and Knowledge Production: Critical Reflections on the Practices of Academic Evaluation. The significance of this book came into being with Taiwan Higher Education System’s rapid inclination toward neo-liberalism. It points out how the evaluation system invoked by neo-liberalism dominates the autonomy of knowledge production.
