Internationalisation of Higher Education in light of national development problems

https://doi.org/10.29235/2524-2369-2021-66-2-135-141

Abstract

The internationalisation largely determines the modern image of higher education and is considered one of the markers of the state’s national success. Slow development of internationalisation of higher education may indicate the occurrence of serious problems in national development, one way or another related to economic, political or social sustainability. In this regard, the internationalisation of higher education should be examined as an important object for socio-philosophical reflection that could shed light on the general problems of global development.
