Student Mobilities, Migration and the Internationalization of Higher Education
Rachel Brooks and Johanna Waters Basingstoke: Palgrave Macmillan, 2011, 208 pp., STG£55.00 hardback, (ISBN 978-0-2305-7844-9) Student Mobilities, Migration and the Internationalization of Higher Ed
Researching mobility and emplacement: Examining transience and transnationality in international student lives
The mobility of international students represents an important emerging focus for human geographers interested in the dynamic intersections between education, migration and globalisation. Researching the lives of international students also poses certain methodological challenges, particularly for researchers focused on the local emplacement of students who in many cases are relatively temporary residents of the cities and towns they study in. Th…
Introduction to special section on migration methodologies: Emerging subjects, registers and spatialities of migration in Asia
Contemporary scholarship on the processes, institutions, practices and experiences of international migration draws on a wide range of research methodologies, reflecting the multi-disciplinary character of the field, the diverse sites and subjects of migration, and the varied concepts and theories that underpin this area of study (King 2012). Indeed, while the core of a more traditional study of migration may be centred on policy-relevant quantit…

Organizing Student Mobility: Education Agents and Student Migration to New Zealand
The movement of international students represents an increasing component of contemporary population mobilities. Like other forms of migration, international student mobility takes place through a complex assemblage of actors and networks, including origin and destination states, educational institutions, families, friends and communities, and of course students themselves. In the midst of these arrangements education agents appear to occupy a pi…

Transnational mobilities and urban spatialities: Notes from the Asia-Pacific
Recent debates in migration studies have emphasized the importance of attending to the urban as part of an effort to respatialize the study of mobility and transnationalism. This paper critically expands on these interventions through a more detailed engagement with ideas of relationality and territoriality moving beyond permanent settlement to consider temporary migrants, and considering urban centres outside North America and Europe through dis…
Making the Most of Diversity? The Intercultural City Project and a Rescaled Version of Diversity in Auckland, New Zealand
Contemporary policy approaches to ‘cultural diversity’ are increasingly focusing on ‘the urban’, marking a considerable departure from configurations like biculturalism and multiculturalism in which the space of the nation was viewed as the key arena for the making of diverse and cohesive societies. In this context, this paper analyses the Intercultural City Project (ICP), a multicity planning initiative developed by the private consultancy Comed…
International students as urban agents: International education and urban transformation in Auckland, New Zealand
Transnationalism Unbound: Detailing New Subjects, Registers and Spatialities of Cross-Border Lives
The emergence of transnationalism as a central focus in the study of migration in the early 1990s marked a significant departure in scholarly understandings of cross-border movements and their consequences. Indeed, the recognition that migrants do not simply follow linear pathways of departure, settlement and assimilation or return has both highlighted the importance of and provided an empirical base for reconfiguring conceptualisations of nation…
Connecting 'Home' With 'Here: Personal Homepages in Everyday Transnational Lives
The study of migrant transnationalism focuses on the ways in which (certain) individuals are able to act socially, economically or politically in more than one locale. One crucial element to such action is the use of communication technologies-and in particular the internet-as a means to bridge the gaps between different places. In this paper I focus on the use of personal homepages amongst South Korean international students in Auckland, New Zea…
Bridges to learning: International Student Mobilities, Education Agencies and Inter‐personal Networks
International education is a fundamentally transnational project. It relies on the movement of individuals or knowledge across national borders, disturbs the centrality of the nation‐state in educational reproduction, and is facilitated by economic and social networks that act as bridges between countries of origin and education. In this article, I address this latter point through reference to research conducted with South Korean international s…
Ofkimchiand coffee: Globalisation, Transnationalism and Familiarity in Culinary Consumption
This paper discusses the culinary consumption choices of South Korean international students in Auckland, New Zealand as a route to re-considering the transnational production of familiarity. In particular, this study questions the extent to which culinary consumption by transnational migrants is always an intentional declaration of 'group loyalties' or about the re-production of local or national identities. Drawing on research with students thi…
Making Asian students, making students Asian: The racialisation of export education in Auckland, New Zealand
In recent years, international education has become a source of considerable political, academic and media debate in New Zealand. This is nowhere more the case than with regards to Auckland, the New Zealand city that has hosted the greatest number of international students. This paper focuses on the media debates around international students in Auckland with particular emphasis on the representations of the largest group of international student…
Getting ‘Entangled’: Reflexivity and the ‘Critical Turn’ in Tourism Studies
Reflecting a broader postmodern shift to unmask the cultural politics of research and knowledge-making in academia, tourism studies as a field is demonstrating a notable `critical turn¿ ¿ a shift in thought that serves to provide and legitimise a space for more interpretative and critical modes of tourism inquiry. In response to this critical turn, this paper addresses the central issue of `reflexivity¿ which, while alive in other disciplines and…
