Constructing National Higher Education Brands
This study examines the websites of the national higher education (HE) brands of Study in Korea, Study in India and Study in Israel , exploring how these ‘offbeat’ destinations position themselves in the global HE market. Drawing on rhetorical analysis and employing a qualitative comparative case study approach, it reveals the key identity markers and rhetorical strategies employed in each campaign, considering temporal shifts. While these brands…
Internationalization in higher education beyond the Western horizon
This article introduces the special issue, and together with it, addresses the development of a critical turn in studies of internationalization, seeking to highlight its two major issues. First, it has tended to employ a narrow range of theoretical and analytical perspectives, and second, it has been limited in its empirical and geographical scope. A central argument is that, in order to understand internationalization in the context of a rapidl…
Supervising international students
This study examines how the pursuit of symbolic capital within a highly competitive and metricized academic field shapes academic staff perceptions of and engagement with international research student supervision. Drawing on Bourdieu's conceptual tools, and based on 60 interviews with academic staff from diverse disciplines and universities in Israel, we identify perceptions that either impede or facilitate the supervision of international stude…
Bridging Higher Education Research and Policy
We examine the role of institutional knowledge brokers in bridging higher education research (HER) and higher education policy, focusing on a parliamentary advisory body in Israel. Using citation and topic analysis, supplemented by stakeholder interviews, we investigate the topics addressed, sources of evidence utilised and perceptions of different forms of evidence. Findings reveal the limited influence of HER on advisory outputs, with governmen…
Reconfiguring international student mobility amid geopolitical crisis
Amidst intensifying global geopolitical tensions that challenge international student mobility (ISM), this study contests the view of ISM as passively (re)shaped by external forces. Drawing on interviews with senior international education administrators in Israel during the Israel–Hamas war, it explores how ISM is actively maintained and reconfigured through purposive institutional work. Administrators perceived severe war-induced impacts across…
Politicizing Mobility in the Covid-19 Pandemic
We critically examine the politicization of international student mobility (ISM) during the COVID-19 pandemic, focusing on Israel, China, and the United Arab Emirates (UAE). Applying Vicki Squire’s framework of the politics of control and migration, we reveal how the pandemic intensified existing political tensions and inequalities, challenging depoliticized narratives of ISM. The study demonstrates how crises magnify societal organizing principl…
Internationalization, global higher education and postcolonial critiques
Over the past decade, a strand of scholarship, Critical Internationalization Studies (CIS), has emerged which analyses the nature, purposes, and impact of global higher education and internationalisation, providing a corrective to normative, acritical scholarship. Within this body of work, we focus on an influential strand, ‘internationalization otherwise’ (CIS/IO), which shares a communicative purpose: portraying global higher education as a con…
From irreversible openness to protectionism
This paper analyses the EU's approach to international research cooperation between 2012-2022 drawing on critical geopolitical perspectives and the spatial politics of (re)bordering.It identifies two periods which represent the EU's shifting approaches to international research cooperation from the pursuit of a liberal agenda promoting openness towards selective closure and a focus on ideological differences, regional interests and protectionism.…
Internationalisation, teacher education and institutional identities
Teachers are under increasing pressure to promote various and many times conflicting and fluid sets of values—both global/local—cosmopolitan and national. Teachers are expected to possess meaningful skills, theoretical grounding and practical tools to effectively undertake this role. One way in which to prepare teachers for this, is through internationalisation of teacher education (IoTE). Teacher education programmes are situated within a distin…
Challenging the internationalisation of education
Critical perspectives on internationalization in higher education
We explore the literature on internationalization in higher education and distinguish between the mainstream and radical approaches to critical scholarship. We argue that the mainstream approach continues to steer internationalization towards socially progressive and equitable aims, while growing concerns have surfaced especially with regard to its commercialization. We focus on the postcolonial approach and suggest that it has inherent limitatio…
Adapting ‘internationalization’ to integrate ‘troublesome’ minorities
We analyze the policies of China and Israel towards students from Hong Kong and East Jerusalem respectively. We demonstrate that they are treated as International students and subject to a form of ‘internationalization’ designed to consolidate national forms of identity and extend state control over ‘troublesome’ minorities within the nation state. This domestic adaptation of the structures designed to support internationalization within Universi…
From Human Capital to Marginalized Other
Classed and gendered internationalisation of research and knowledge production
Based on statistical analysis of the Higher Education Statistics Agency (HESA) international student data from 1998 to 2014, we provide the first detailed analysis of UK international doctoral student data (and the gaps therein). We highlight missing and ambiguous data and develop the profiles of these students, with a particular focus on gender, discipline, destination university, source of funding and country of origin. We argue that the curren…
The OECD’s influence on national higher education policies
An extensive literature has explored the influence of the OECD on school education policies globally, while their influence on higher education policies has been underexamined. This article addresses that void by analysing the internationalisation of higher education in Israel and South Korea. We suggest that joining the OECD provided political legitimacy for both countries and that the OECD comparative metrics and guidelines were crucial in gene…
Diaspora, Ethnic Internationalism and Higher Education Internationalisation
Modern universities have largely been portrayed in the literature as an extension of nation building projects, focusing on the state as primary actor. This article challenges such presuppositions by separating ‘nation’ and ‘state’ and with a critical appropriation of diasporic subjectivity and institutions from a comparative historical perspective. The article has four themes: ‘diaspora’, ‘ethnic internationalism’, ‘stateless nations’ and ‘intern…
Diaspora, Internationalization and Higher Education
Traditionally, the term ‘diaspora’ (from the Greek translation of the Hebrew Bible) referred to the dispersion of the Jewish people from ancient Israel. It had a pejorative connotation, associated with Jewish punishment for disobeying divine laws and decrees and was defined broadly by (traumatic/forced) dispersion leading to ‘exile’ and continued longing for an idealized homeland and ‘return’ to it (Cohen, 2008). Over time, the term began to be u…
Marketing universities and targeting international students
The competition for international students has spurred higher education institutions (HEIs) to craft marketing campaigns to appeal to potential students, with social media providing an increasingly prominent platform for such interactions. We analyse the social media data trails (Facebook posts) of two Israeli HEIs to reveal how they portray themselves and craft appeals to international students. We reveal two distinct portrayals, closely linked …
The long read
At almost every election, Americans are inclined to say that this is the most consequential election in American history. 2020 is no exception. However, what is particularly remarkable about the No
Accumulating cosmopolitan and ethnic identity capital through international student mobility
International student mobility (ISM), particularly degree-mobility, has been primarily portrayed as the rational pursuit of economic advantage in an increasingly competitive and stratified global hierarchy of nations, academic institutions and qualifications. This focus on what has been portrayed as the pursuit of ‘cosmopolitan capital’, has led to other types of capital being ignored, despite evidence that cosmopolitan capital is inadequate to e…
Educational equality and international students
Claims for educational equality, particularly in higher education, have been framed primarily within the nation state for the benefit of citizens. However, as universities become increasingly inter
Neoliberalism, internationalisation and higher education
We explore the role of neoliberalism within portrayals of internationalisation in higher education (HE). Through an analysis of four features of internationalisation, we suggest that they embody a complex entanglement of neoliberal categories and assumptions with other, primarily progressive humanitarian ideals. This framing of internationalisation has three affects. One, humanitarian ideals coupled with neoliberal categories normalise inequaliti…
