doktorska disertacija
Povzetek
Potreba po preučitvi tovrstne teme izhaja iz naslednjih razlogov in obrazložitev. Prvič, področje internacionalizacije visokega šolstva ni deležno zadostne obravnave. Njeno proučevanje je bilo večino časa povezano z glavnimi vprašanji visokega šolstva, kot so upravljanje, financiranje in mobilnost študentov. V tej študiji sta internacionalizacija visokega šolstva in akademska profesija obravnavani kot samostojni področji z vidika njunih glavnih razsežnosti, vidikov ter centra in periferije. Drugič, akademski profesiji, tj. glavnemu akterju in gonilni sili internacionalizacije visokega šolstva, je z internacionalizacijo povezana literatura namenila le malo pozornosti. Tretjič, zdi se, da primerjalni raziskovalni pristop internacionalizacije visokega šolstva in akademske profesije v afriški, azijsko-pacifiški in evropski regiji ni vzbudil zanimanja raziskovalcev. Še posebej za primerjalno vključitev Afrike v študijo azijsko-pacifiške in evropske regije se zdi, da je bila potisnjena v ozadje. Četrtič, konotacija pojma inter-nacional-izacija visokega šolstva ne razlaga jasno, kaj internacionalizacija pravzaprav pomeni. To je treba pojasniti v smislu koncepta, ki ga ponazarja, in dimenzij, vidikov in značilnosti, ki jih internacionalizacija manifestira in označuje. Poleg tega mu primanjkuje jasne, skupne in celovite opredelitve in pomena. Kot severni teoretski konstrukt, interpretacija, razlaga in opredelitev, internacionalizacija odraža glasove globalnega severa, predvsem visokega šolstva centra. Vendar pa za razumevanje, pojasnjevanje, konceptualizacijo ali opredelitev internacionalizacije visokega šolstva in akademske profesije z vidika različnih dejavnosti, dogovorov in glasov periferije niso bila dosežena ustrezna in celovita prizadevanja. To so nekatere izmed utemeljitev v ozadju osredotočanja na temo konceptualizacije internacionalizacije visokega šolstva in akademske profesije iz regionalne perspektive Afrike, Azije-Pacifika in Evrope.

Conceptualizing the internationalization of higher education and the academic profession with a comparative analysis of Europe, Asia-Pacific, and Africa |
Sekundarni povzetek: |
The need to study this issue emanates from the following rationales and justifications. First, the internationalization of higher education is not sufficiently addressed as a subject. Most of the time, the study of this topic has been attached to major issues of the higher education such as management, funding, and to student mobility. In this study, the internationalization of higher education and the academic profession is considered as a subject in its own right from the perspectives of its major dimensions, aspects, and center and periphery. Second, the related literature on internationalization has given little attention to the principal actor and driving force of the internationalization of higher education, i.e. the academic profession. Third, a comparative research approach of the internationalization of higher education and the academic profession of the regions of Africa, Asia-Pacific and Europe has not been the concern of researchers. Particularly, a comparative inclusion of Africa into the study of Asia-Pacific and Europe seems to have been marginalized. Fourth, the connotation of the term internationalization of higher education does not clearly explain what “internationalization denotes”. This has to be explained in terms of the concept it stands for and the dimensions, aspects and features internationalization manifests and denotes. Moreover, “internationalization” lacks clear, common and comprehensive definition and meaning. As a northern theory construct, interpretation, explanation, and definition, internationalization reflects the voices of the global North, mainly centre-higher education. No adequate and comprehensive attempt has been made at the understanding, clarifying, conceptualizing, or defining internationalization of higher education and the academic profession from the perspectives of the varies aspects of activities, engagements, and voices of the peripheries. All the above factors have caused an increasing fuzziness of the concept of internationalization. These are some of the justifications for focusing on the issue of conceptualizing internationalization of higher education and the academic profession from the regional perspectives of Africa, Asia-Pacific, and Europe. |
