Opis

This book applies the core tenets of cosmopolitan thought to the practice of teaching and learning in contemporary universities. It presents an approach to education which allows all students – not only those with the resources to engage in physical mobility – to experience a truly international education, one which emphasises deep cultural exchange rather than mere transactional contact.
