Abstract

The article examines the deliberation of higher education (HE) scholars and practitioners on research issues in the HE field, which has taken into account the complexity of current trends of deglobalisation and changing characteristics of globalisation. More precisely, the article offers a systematic review of the ideas developed by focus group participants (FGPs) from different parts of the world while debating internationalisation, globalisation and Europeanisation with respect to the field of HE. These FGPs agreed that: 1) theoretical definitions used by academics and practitioners are currently socially constructed in a biased way (in favour of the Anglo-North American point of view); 2) academic research (notably conceptual definitions) must better take into account the issues contextually and dynamically across time and space; and 3) that HE research is in the stage when a more theoretically refined and a methodologically stronger new global wave of empirical research is required for further advancement of theorising and practitioners’ work. Keywords: higher education, methods, theory, definitions, globalisation, internationalisation, Europeanisation

全球化挑战时期高等教育领域的研究问题

本文考察了高等教育学者和从业者对高等教育领域研究问题的思考，考虑到当前去全球化趋势的复杂性和全球化特征的变化。更准确地说，这篇文章系统地回顾了来自世界不同地区的焦点小组参与者在讨论高等教育领域的国际化、全球化和欧洲化时提出的想法。这些FGP一致认为：1）学术界和从业者使用的理论定义目前是以一种偏向社会的方式构建的（有利于盎格鲁-北美的观点）；2）学术研究（尤其是概念定义）必须更好地考虑到跨时间和空间的背景和动态问题；3）高等教育研究正处于一个理论上更精细、方法上更强的新的全球实证研究浪潮的阶段，需要进一步推进理论和从业者的工作。关键词：高等教育、方法、理论、定义、全球化、国际化、欧洲化
