Purpose. This article aims to test the hypothesis of significant imbalances in the regional higher education systems in Ukraine and to substantiate the priority areas for improving their competitiveness on the criteria of quality, social responsibility, and economic efficiency. Design/methodology/approach. The first part of the study offers a conceptual model for analysing the higher education system's competitiveness. The authors use the main provisions of the theory of human, social and intellectual capital, stakeholder theory, literature review method, and interdisciplinary approach to determine the features of higher education as a particular sector of social activity, regional economy, as well as an object of competitiveness analysis in terms of three criteria – quality, economic efficiency, and social responsibility. In the second part, the authors propose the methodological framework and list of indicators for analysing the regional higher education systems based on a developed conceptual model. The third part presents the results of statistical analysis of higher education systems in 25 regions of Ukraine and priority areas for improving their competitiveness by the criteria of quality, social responsibility, and economic efficiency. Findings. The hypothesis of significant imbalances in the regional higher education systems in Ukraine is proven. The results of the analysis reveal substantial differences in the regional higher education systems, particularly for indicators as the ratio of university entrants and high school graduates participating in the independent external testing in this region, the proportion of HEIs students studying at the expense of local budgets, the number of regional HEIs in the world university rankings. Considering the results of the analysis and the features of regional development, the authors substantiate the priority areas for improving the competitiveness of the higher education system for Ukraine’s regions by the criteria of quality, social responsibility, and economic efficiency. Each of these priority areas involves using appropriate target indicators and considers the interests of key stakeholders of the higher education system. Practical implications. The authors propose priority areas for improving the competitiveness of higher education in the regions that can be used to implement the strategic goals of the potential intellectual development of Ukraine's regions and thus enhance the role of HEIs in solving urgent problems of regional development. Originality/value. Despite numerous papers on economics and management in higher education, there are virtually no studies in academic practice, which aim to take into account the regional features of higher education. Secondly, based on its comprehensive empirical research, third, it can justify the strategic priorities for the development of provincial higher education systems with relevant target indicators. Thus this study aims to fill these gaps.

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to make a case for linking spiritual intelligence to the Indian university curriculum for creating sustainable leaders and change agents. The growing emphasis on higher education sustainability involves taking a step back from the daily rigors of academic life and giving a thought to the unique approaches to promote sustainability. Though there are several initiatives for making the environment in the campus sustainable – switching off lights/fans, reducing consumption, etc., there are very few initiatives promoting the transformation of the individual. This paper defines a new conceptual framework linking spiritual intelligence to leadership and sustainability of the higher education system. Design/methodology/approach This present study is analytical and comprises secondary data which are collected from research papers, books, periodicals and journals. Using keywords search in the Scopus database, a list of papers was arrived at, analyzed and distilled to arrive at select journals. These journals were cross-reference to the SCimago’s journal portal ranking and established journal selected. Papers based on these established journals were taken for systematic review and synthesis of literature. Literature studies for bibliometric analysis work were also conducted using the using tools like “VOSviewer” for precisely arriving at current and future areas of research. Findings There were three main findings: defined a new conceptual model/framework of practical spiritual intelligence in the higher education system; defined the key shared language of spiritual intelligence in a higher education system; and defined the key attributes of practical spiritual leadership and sustainability. Originality/value This research is based on developing a conceptual model of interaction between spiritual intelligence and spiritual leadership in a higher education university environment that can give us a new insight into the manifestation of practical spirituality in universities. The extent of research work, both conceptual as well as empirical, as evidenced, does indicate the growing and sustained interest in the subject of spirituality and spiritual intelligence, but there is limited research in the area of leadership development and sustainability in the higher education system.

After first surveying the development of academic studies of Islam within the modern Turkish higher education system, this essay provides an inventory of material that has been translated from Western languages into Turkish. It is inevitable that orientalist studies will have a place of tremendous importance in this analysis. However, approaches to the Qur'an and its exegesis which have been developed under the influence of the Western scientific and cultural world encompass a larger range of literature that includes not only the orientalist studies themselves but also the criticisms directed against these studies. Particular attention is paid to the work of Fazlur Rahman and Arab scholars influenced by Western methods, and an assessment of the various issues related to the critique of orientalist works is provided.
