Conclusion and Discussion: Toward a Critical Anthropology of a Global Knowledge Society.This book examines transnational scapes and flows of higher education: arguing that the educational and political vision of a national, regional and global knowledge society needs to be perspectivized beyond its ethnocentric conditions and meanings. Using eduscapes as its most important concept, this book explores the educational landscapes of individual as well as institutional actors; particularly the agential aspects of how global eduscapes are imagined, experienced, negotiated and constructed. In addition, the authors highlight the critical potential of anthropology, using this perspective as a resource for cultural critique where the Western experience and assumed ‘ownership’ of the global knowledge economy will be put into question. This comprehensive book will appeal to students and scholars of educational policy, the sociology of education and the globalization of education.Palgrave Studies in Global Higher Education,2662-4214Higher educationAnthropologyEducational sociologyEducational policyEducation and stateEducational technologyHigher Educationhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/O36000Anthropologyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/X12000Sociology of Educationhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/O29000Educational Policy and Politicshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/O19000Technology and Digital Educationhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/O47000Higher education.Anthropology.Educational sociology.Educational policy.Education and state.Educational technology.Higher Education.Anthropology.Sociology of Education.Educational Policy and Politics.Technology and Digital Education.378.016Forstorp Per-Andersauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut1059463Mellström Ulfauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/autBOOK9910299531003321Higher Education, Globalization and Eduscapes2505934UNINA
