ABSTRACT The development of applied-practice or professional doctorates has implications for the roles of not only academics and students but also the commercial drivers in the knowledge economy. The changes suggest that it is in the common good for developing economies, as well as benefiting both private economic and social capital. Universities worldwide are now offering doctoral degrees that relate more closely to the field of practice. The changing role of doctorates reflects the aim of universities to become more relevant, both economically and socially, yet this may not be in line with the objectives of the state. A principal-agent theory is used as the lens to explore the challenges faced in developing practice-based doctorates in Georgia, where governance is currently externalised and centralised and where the only doctorates recognised are academic. This form of external control may contribute to delay in adopting professional doctorates and any changes may challenge the entire system.

现代挑战:格鲁吉亚新兴经济体在博士教育中引入专业和实践的社会政治问题

摘要应用实践或专业博士学位的发展不仅影响学者和学生的角色,而且也影响知识经济中的商业驱动力。这些变化表明,这对发展中经济体以及对私人经济和社会资本都有利的共同利益。现在,世界各地的大学都在提供与实践领域更紧密相关的博士学位。博士学位角色的变化反映了大学在经济和社会上变得更加重要的目标,但这可能与国家目标不符。委托代理理论被用作探讨乔治亚州发展以实践为基础的博士学位所面临的挑战的镜头,目前治理是外部化和集中化的,只有博士才是学术性的。这种形式的外部控制可能会导致延迟采用专业博士学位,任何更改都可能对整个系统构成挑战。
