Internationalization of Higher Education: An Analysis through Spatial, Network, and Mobilities Theories

Autor Marianne A. Larsen
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 31 iul 2019
This book provides a cutting-edge analysis of the ways in which higher education institutions have become more international over the past two decades. Drawing upon a range of post-foundational spatial, network, and mobilities theories, the book shifts our thinking away from linear, binary, Western accounts of internationalization to understand the complex, multi-centered and contradictory ways in which internationalization processes have played out across a wide variety of higher education landscapes worldwide. The author explores transnational student, scholar, knowledge, program and provider mobilities; the production of mobile bodies, knowledges, and identities; the significance of place in internationalization; and the crucial role that global university rankings play in reshaping the spatial landscape of higher education.

Recenzii

“As an irreversible trend in today’s world, globalization drives the process of internationalization of higher education (IoHE) to be a part of international free trade system. … It provides new explanations about the multidimensionality and intersections of higher education internationalization. … the book sheds light on the phenomenon of higher education internationalization in an innovative, insightful approach. It is suitable for scholars and administrators interested in network and spatial theory, globalization, and the IoHE.” (Jing Tian and Hao Ni, Higher Education, Vol. 76, 2018)
