Popis: | This chapter reviews concepts of multiculturalism, transnationalism and cosmopolitanism and their application to the development of modern higher education. Such focus provides a theoretical framework for discussing the internationalisation of universities. The current debate concerning the various rationales for internationalisation reveals competing visions of higher education. While there is a humanistic ideal of higher education, internationalisation strategies prioritize economic and competitive approaches guided by national interests. |
