Abstract	The implications of New Public Management (NPM) ideas in public administration have been contested. Introducing these ideas in a public university system should make an apt case for the exploration of the potential and limitations of NPM as a universal approach to management reform. In higher education, where institutional autonomy and academic freedom are fundamental values, the compatibility between the rationale of the reform policies and the substantive field in which they are supposed to operate is posed more acutely than in most other policy fields. In this article, I shall discuss the introduction of NPM as the ideological foundation of the Evaluative State within the Norwegian university in an historical perspective. I shall position those ideas in three different contexts: the normative ideals surrounding university activity, the organisational ideals related to university governance and, finally, the recent reform in Norway.
