About the book

"This is the first complete account of the establishment in the UK of the Arts and Humanities Research Council in 2005. It particularly focuses on the campaign carried forward from the 1997 Dearing Report to the 2004 Higher Education Act to establish a public agency investing in humanities and arts research that would be equivalent to the Research Councils funding natural and social science research - a campaign that can be emulated in other countries." "Built on interviews with leading participants, regional and national press coverage, and analysis of influential national studies, Creating the AHRC shows how engagement with contemporary issues - the knowledge economy, devolution, and the expansion of higher education - as well as a long tradition of scholarly excellence led to fashioning a new model funding agency."--BOOK JACKET.
