14. Higher education institutional identities are being reshaped by processes of corporatisation, globalisation and neoliberalism. Universities must compete with each other reflecting the neo-liberal consumer democracy (Harris, 2005). ‘Corporate image and identity is increasingly important as universities sell themselves and their ‘brand name’ which intensifies institutional competition as they compete to maintain their market position’ (Cunningham et al, 2000 quoted by Harris, 2005:424).
