DESCRIPTION:In higher education\, reforms have long been driven by the theo
 ry that system performance depends on governance design\; yet it remains f
 ar from clear which arrangements can actually deliver results\, as shown i
 n the analysis of various streams of research devoted to assessing perform
 ance in higher education. Such a question can be better answered if resear
 ch aims for a mechanistic explanation and operationalizes it to avoid the 
 shortcomings of both ‘variable-oriented’ and ‘case-oriented’ strategies. W
 e therefore develop a ‘diversity-oriented’ mechanistic framework that expl
 ains differences in performance by differences in policy tool mixes\, whic
 h we define as governance regimes. This set of policy tools is meant as a 
 configuration of properties of delivery vehicles\, decision-making design\
 , and accountability design. Such an explanatory focus has many advantages
 : policy tools are manipulable\, as they depend on political and administr
 ative decisions\; moreover\, they are efficient causes\, as they trigger m
 echanisms at the individual level that directly account for both individua
 l and institutional behavior and\, hence\, performance. Obviously the empi
 rical adoption of this framework asks for specific operationalization of c
 onditions (mainly policy instruments) and thus  of their coding.  Short BI
