This paper explores the ideological orientations of higher education (HE) researchers in the form of a visual map, including three principal ‘islands’ –  Pragmatists Peninsula ,  Reformists Rock  and  Dystopians Retreat.  The development of the HE research field in general, illustrated by the last 40 years of scholarship within  Higher Education Research &amp; Development  in particular, is explained in relation to this metaphorical seascape. The analysis identifies a number of shifting publication patterns, such as the gradual radicalisation of HE scholarship, a growing dystopian literature and the reorientation of pragmatist research interests from micro- and departmental-level concerns to meso-level work directed at strategic, university-wide agendas.

A voyage around the ideological islands of higher education research
