One of the developments we encounter in higher education is strategic alliances established for various purposes. These meta-organizations, created by institutional actors, have been the subject of numerous studies. However, there is a need for research grounded in theoretical perspectives. Strategic alliances in higher education can be linked to established theoretical perspectives in management and organization theory, as the validity of these theories in explaining the formation and continuity of organizational fields has been proven. Building on this inspiration, this study aims to relate the establishment objectives of strategic alliances in higher education to established theoretical perspectives in management and organization studies. This conceptual study provides theoretical insight into strategic alliances in higher education.
