"The rapporteur’s apologist vision seeks to obscure or minimise some of the most serious consequences of the Bologna process. These include
the creation of economic barriers to accessing and attending higher education; the commercialisation of education, driving away those without the financial means to ‘buy’ the ‘products’ that the various ‘stages’ of higher education have now become; and the attack on the social role of the state in this area, which is enshrined in the constitutions of countries like Portugal, although this is not respected. Education as a right that should be guaranteed to all, irrespective of individual financial circumstances, has been called into question. The role of the education system in overcoming social inequalities has been called into question, replaced by a knowledge ‘market’ and a new business opportunity that ensure the reproduction of social inequalities. Those are some of the consequences of the Bologna process. The proclaimed objective of student mobility has fallen by the wayside, since mobility rates are low, as the report itself acknowledges. The harmonisation of curricula ignores the specific characteristics of each country’s education system, in a trend towards training for the workplace rather than integrated education. Quality is declining and many students are obliged to indebt themselves in order to access a fundamental right."@en1
