Reimagining Border in Cross-border Education

ISBN-13: 9781032548616 / Angielski

Neeta Inamdar; Pranjali Kirloskar

Opis

Universities are inherently and definitionally universal in their quest for the creation and dissemination of knowledge. They are set to defy borders that exist in parochial forms. Globalization which opened up borders has by design or default created inequalities and imbalances in knowledge systems. Undoubtedly, knowledge is power but there is difference in the power that is intrinsic to it and the power that is ascribed which is determined by dominant political and economic hierarchies.If knowledge predominantly flows from global north to global south, people seeking knowledge move from global south to global north. These imbalances are also seen within these regions, between cultures and communities, one claiming superiority over the other. These realities call for a reassessment of not only what constitutes knowledge, but also what encompasses the idea of borders.This book elaborates on the inclusive role of education that can act as an equalizer or as a catalyst for creating a level playing field across borders.Print edition not for sale in South Asia (India, Sri Lanka, Nepal, Bangladesh, Pakistan and Bhutan)

Neeta Inamdar is Professor and Head of the Manipal Centre for European Studies (MCES), Manipal Academy of Higher Education (MAHE), Manipal. She was instrumental in establishing MCES in 2009 and since then, has led it through the years to make it a Jean Monnet Centre of Excellence that offers the only master’s program in European Studies in India. Though interested in various aspects of the European economy, society, and culture, she is more drawn toward education in Europe—both school and higher education as reflected in the projects led by her in Content and Language Integrated Learning (CLIL), and Bologna Process and Internationalization of Higher Education. She believes in people-to-people “connect” as a means for peaceful coexistence and focuses on research on the educational connect between India and Europe. She has been a recipient of the Jean Monnet module (2014-2017) and Jean Monnet Chair (2017-2020). She was instrumental in the formation of the Association of European Studies in India (AESI) and is presently the Secretary of AESI.
