Abstract

This article focuses on the notion of institutional reflexivity. Its theoretical framework is based on the views of a group of sociologists ¾ Anthony Giddens, Ulrich Beck, Scott Lash ¾ who developed the concept of reflexive modernization. The article applies the notion of institutional reflexivity to the field of higher education and reviews the limits to this capacity in Bulgarian universities.
