Reviews
“This book offers an in-depth overview of student mobility by focusing on less-discussed areas and making connections between neoliberalism, globalization, and education. … The analysis in Student Mobilities, Migration and the Internationalization of Higher Education could certainly shed some light on the policy decision-making process in Canada.” (Jing Xiao, Canadian Journal of Higher Education, Vol. 45 (4), 2015)
"This is a timely book. It is also an interesting and well-written piece, which provides a good introduction to the topics of mobility and...internationalization in higher education." - Journal of Research in International Education
"This book offers so much more than the title suggests!...The authors take us on a fascinating journey through related theoretical debates around globalisation, migration and knowledge construction...This book should be valuable for anyone working in international and comparative education." - Compare: A Journal of Comparative and International Education
"A valuable overview of the issues arising from the increasing internationalisation of higher education." - British Journal of Sociology of Education
