Abstract
This article reviews the current literature on the most influential international university rankings. These classification systems have been the object of critiques, but have also gained legitimacy in the institutional university context, due to their role as global benchmarks of institutional quality. Given the impact of the rankings on different higher education actors, we have identified both opportunities and disadvantages associated with these comparative systems, in terms of management, resource generation, and the international visibility of the universities.
