Dear IHE subscriber,
We are delighted to share the latest issue of
International Higher Education #119,
our Summer 2024 edition!
Our editorial confronts the peer review crisis, examining the current challenges due to the massification of knowledge production. We explore ways to improve the process, including providing incentives, enhancing transparency, and expanding the pool of reviewers.
This issue analyzes how geopolitics reshapes student mobility, from the UK's "hostile environment" policies to East Asian power dynamics between South Korea, China, and Japan. Learn about surprising trends in doctoral mobility in France, postdoc experiences
in Germany, and the uneven post-pandemic recovery of scholar mobility to the United States.
It unpacks trends in transnational education: how Uzbekistan has become the world's third-largest host of international branch campuses and why institutions still seek to establish branch campuses in Dubai's saturated market. It also examines how US campuses
navigate tensions between isolationist tendencies and continued expansion, as well as possible futures for transnational cooperation among European universities.
Several articles also explore higher education systems in political upheaval: Argentina under President Milei's new leadership, the emergence of "universities in exile" countering authoritarian regimes in countries like Afghanistan and Myanmar, and Russia's
regression toward Soviet-style education practices during wartime.
Enjoy the issue!
Philip G. Altbach, Hans de Wit, Chris R. Glass, Gerardo Blanco, and Rebecca Schendel (editors)
