Zusammenfassung:The internationalization of higher education is a world-wide phenomenon, subject to multiple interpretations at national, institutional and individual levels. Still, much of the mainstream literature on this topic is concentrated on a small number of countries and a narrow range of key topics. This book offers a broader set of perspectives from outside the dominant English-speaking and Western European paradigms, while simultaneously focusing on dimensions of internationalization that are known to be under-researched. Additionally, the editors give primacy to next generation perspectives, not only to amplify our current understanding of key issues around the world, but also to shine a light on possible future agendas for this aspect of contemporary higher education. Key topics covered include: the current state of research and analysis on the internationalization of higher education; aspects of internationalization and international activities which have not previously been explored or have limited current exposure; how research into internationalization is conducted, showcasing innovative methodological practices; a synthesis of common themes and differences in relation to the future agenda of topics, modes and contexts for internationalization; and an identification of key areas for future research.
