520 21st century higher education faces immense changesfrom
the broad impact of globalization to the implications of
massification and the growth of enrollments worldwide. The
International Imperative in Higher Education focuses on
most of the central elements affecting universities
worldwide. Included among the themes analyzed are global
issues such as corruption, the continuing impact of the
brain drain and the phenomenon of brain exchange, the role
of English in internationalization, changes in the
environment for publishing and knowledge distribution, and
academic freedom. The specific elements of
internationalization, such as growing commercialization,
and the role of agents and recruiters as a part of global
student flows are considered. The role of the academic
profession in a rapidly changing university environment is
also discussed. Special attention is paid to China and
India, the worlds two largest academic systems, and the
specific challenges faced by them. This book consists of
40 concise essays analyzing key aspects of global higher
education. They bring together broad analysis and an
underlying concern for the public good aspects of higher
education in a comparative and international framework.
