Ethical globalisation or privileged internationalisation? Exploring global citizenship and internationalisation in Irish and Canadian universities

摘要

This article explores policies and practices of global citizenship and internationalisation within higher education in Canada and Ireland, comparing two Canadian and two Irish universities. The cases suggest a number of entangled and contradictory strands of internationalisation, with implications for global citizenship. Underlying notions of globalisation, citizenship and ‘development’ are interrogated and issues surrounding the local/global distinction, privilege and marketisation are discussed. International relations paradigms and the ‘development connection’ are examined as broader determinants of understandings of global citizenship.View full textDownload full textKeywordsinternationalisation, global citizenship, Canada, Ireland, universitiesRelated var addthis_config = { ui_cobrand: "Taylor & Francis Online", services_compact: "citeulike,netvibes,twitter,technorati,delicious,linkedin,facebook,stumbleupon,digg,google,more", pubid: "ra-4dff56cd6bb1830b" }; Add to shortlist Link Permalink http://dx.doi.org/10.1080/14767724.2011.605320
