Abstract

With the global as the dominating frame of reference, the international higher education landscape and its transients move to the forefront of discussions on whose and which education matters today. Embodying the internationalized university, the Global Southern international student turned into an early-career migrant researcher remains a valuable access point to consent and dissent from Western cultural hegemony at the European neoliberal university. Using Pitard’s term (2017) for reflexivity in qualitative research, this paper reflects on an “internal dialogue” of two women PhDs, one from North Macedonia and one from Brazil, studying international student mobility in continental Europe. From the position of “host-sponsored international students who study international students,” we discuss the ambiguity of embodying power and subservience. We conclude that the reflexivity demonstrated here, especially in South-South solidarity constellations, has the potential to reignite debates on global knowledge production today.

关于学习那些出国留学的人

随着全球作为主要参考框架，国际高等教育格局及其瞬息万变，成为当今关于谁的教育和哪些教育重要的讨论的前沿。作为国际化大学的代表，环球南方大学的国际学生成为了早期职业移民研究者，在欧洲新自由主义大学中，这仍然是对西方文化霸权的同意和反对的一个有价值的切入点。本文使用Pitard在定性研究中的反思性术语(2017年)，反映了两位女博士的“内部对话”，一位来自北马其顿，一位来自巴西，研究欧洲大陆的国际学生流动。从“东道主留学生研究留学生”的立场出发，探讨权力与屈从的模糊体现。我们的结论是，这里表现出的自反性，特别是在南南团结星座中，有可能重新引发今天关于全球知识生产的辩论。
