Reimagining Internationalization: A Global Perspective Beyond the US and UK Models
Abstract
The internationalization of higher education has long been framed through the lens of Anglo-American dominance, with the United States and the United Kingdom frequently cast as archetypes of global academic excellence. This chapter challenges the hegemony of these models, arguing that their continued exportation reinforces narrow benchmarks of success, often ill-suited to the diverse realities of institutions worldwide. Drawing on examples from Asia, Africa, Latin America, and the Middle East, this work explores how localized approaches to internationalization are offering alternative pathways—ones rooted in reciprocity, cultural sensitivity, and mutual capacity-building. It examines the political, historical, and economic forces that shape global academic hierarchies and invites a deeper conversation around the ethics of cross-border engagement. Ultimately, this chapter reimagines internationalization not as a race toward uniform excellence but as a mosaic of approaches, each informed by its own context, aspirations, and sense of purpose.
