Brian Lee Crowley at UPEI - Think tanks, universities and thought leadership in Canada

Think tanks are emerging as a major player in public policy thinking throughout the western democracies. Universities, on the other hand, seem to see their relative influence diminishing. Why might that be? Can and should universities try to reverse this trend? Or is this part of a growing institutional specialization that cannot now be changed?
