| 520 | |a More than three million students globally are on the move each year, crossing borders for their tertiary education. Many travel from Asia and Africa to English speaking countries, led by the United States. The provider nations include the UK, Australia and New Zealand, where students pay tuition fees at commercial rates and prop up an education export sector that has become lucrative for the host nations. But the ̀no frills' commercial form of tertiary education for international students, designed to minimise costs and maximise revenues, leaves many students feeling under-protected and disenfranchised. | ||
| 520 | |a International Student Security draws on a close study of international students in Australia, and exposes opportunity, difficulty, danger and courage on a massive scale in the global student market. It works through many unresolved issues confronting students and their families, including personal safety, language proficiency, finances, abuses at work, sub-standard housing, dealings with immigration authorities and universities, student networks and personal support, and issues of loneliness, racism and segregation. It calls for closer and more student-centred forms of regulation and support, and for an education that brings international and local students closer together. The authors' underlying purpose is ambitious and far-sighted. It is nothing less than to extend liberal humanism beyond national borders to globally mobile populations; and to support a cosmopolitan international education that facilitates intercultural exchange on equal terms between the West, emerging Asia and the developing world, foreshadowing the future global society. | ||
| 520 | |a Through sheer saturation, concepts of "identity" and "globalisation" (along with the "knowledge society") have ceased to have explanatory power ... The framing of this work in terms of "security" is ... new, it's potentially paradigm-nesting and stretching. It will challenge the field.' Allan Luke, Professor of Education, Queensland Univesity of Technology. | ||
| 520 | |a This book brings together is one volume a wonderfully argued case for taking international student security more seriously than has been done hitherto. It addresses various dimensions of international student experience, from housing and work to loneliness end racism, and presents a campelling set of policy proposals to ensure their empowerment and protection.' Professor Fazal Rizvi, College of Education University of Illinois (Urbana-Champaign), USA. | ||
| 520 | |a This book covers the whole broad dimension of international student security ... It is likely to appear es a key text in academic programmes throughout the world and its theoretical innovation end empirical findings will be extremely useful' Dr Rajani Naidoo. Director of Studies, Doctor of Business Administration in Higher Education Management, University of Bath, UK. | ||
| 520 | |a The book is very timely and speaks to a mejor gap in the literature: a critical examination of international student experiences in the midst of a quickly rising global student market. What is most impressive is the extensive data collection and analysis of 200 student interviews across 35 countries ... I especially appreciate how they frame their work as a human rights issue.' Dr Jenny Lee, Director, Centre for the Study of Higher Education, University of Arizona, USA --Book Jacket. | ||
