Decolonizing the Internationalization of Higher Education in the Global South
This book reconceives the internationalization of higher education from the perspective of Global-South researchers, empowering and giving visibility to this discourse. Challenging the first assumptions of internationalization of higher education (IHE) as something overwhelmingly positive owing to the way it directly impacts the university activities and their world rankings, it instead takes a critical perspective, acknowledging that this process is associated with a neo-liberal and colonial orientation that focuses on the maintenance of historically sustained hierarchy, oppressive relations that stimulate the production of knowledge, and education as a commodity and not as a factor of soci...

Centers and Peripheries in Romance Language Literatures in the Americas and Africa
What is center and periphery? How can centers and peripheries be recognized by their ontological and axiological features? How does the axiological saturation of a literary field condition aesthetics? How did these factors transform center-periphery relationships to the former metropolises of Romance literatures of the Americas and Africa? What are the consequences of various deperipheralization contexts and processes for poetics? Using theoretical sections and case studies, this book surveys and investigates the limits of globalization. Through explorations of the intercultural dynamics, the aesthetic contributions of former peripheries are examined in terms of the transformative nature of peripheries on centralities.

Enciclopédia Brasileira de Educação Superior – EBES (Volume 2)
A Ebes não é mais uma coletânea de diferentes textos, e sim um legado de diversos professores/pesquisadores, que dedicaram toda ou boa parte de sua vida profissional à Educação, especialmente à Educação Superior, em diferentes tipos de Instituições de Ensino Superior (IES) e situações de desempenho, bem como vivenciaram diferentes posições de inserção (docência, investigação, extensão, gestão) nos sistemas público, privado, confessional ou comunitário de educação, em órgãos ou autarquias do diversificado sistema em expansão, que se organizou no país, principalmente, nas últimas décadas. Sujeitos compromissados com a continuidade da Educação Superior e, sobretudo, com uma visão propositiva de aperfeiçoamento e crescimento da educação que as novas gerações podem receber.
