English Abstract: This paper examines the main principles of New Public Management (NPM), their application to the higher education sector, and the main lines of critique. Using Austria and the UK as contrasting examples of styles of higher education governance and reform, it is argued that the impact of NPM is not, as its critics are sometimes inclined to argue, uniform. The former case exemplifies the kinds of reverse effects and placation analysed by Christopher Hood (1998), while in the latter case agents' behaviour has indeed been altered by the 'bureaucratic revolution' brought about by NPM [Le Gales P. & Scott A. (2008)].
