Abstract

SUMMARY This paper seeks to examine and explain, from an administrative viewpoint, the development of the TEMPUS scheme since 1990. The scheme, which supports the development of higher education in Eastern and Central Europe as part of the overall support for social and economic restructuring within the European Union's Phare programme, is traced through its first phase and into the beginning of the second (TEMPUS II). Establishment of a parallel programme for the republics of the former Soviet Union and Mongolia also began with TEMPUS II. The question mark in the title is prompted by the apparent lack of analysis of the educational impact of this substantial cooperation programme by, among others, academic specialists.
