As the largest group of international students in the English-speaking world, Mainland Chinese students encounter a range of difficulties and prospects that may be relevant to the wider international student community. Using extensive qualitative and empirical data, the author explores the narratives of eleven Chinese doctoral students at two British universities through a sociological perspective. Balancing analysis with solid theoretical framework and the voices of the students themselves, the author moves away from essentialism and ?othering?, instead shining a light on the effects of globalisation, internationalisation and recent policy strategies. This volume will be of interest and value to students and scholars of comparative and international education, identity formation, intercultural communication, the sociology of education and study abroad. 410 0$aPalgrave Studies on Chinese Education in a Global Perspective 606 $aInternational education  606 $aComparative education 606 $aStudy skills 606 $aForeign study 606 $aEducational sociology 606 $aEducational sociology  606 $aEducation and sociology 606 $aInternational and Comparative Education$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/O13000 606 $aStudying abroad$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/O53100 606 $aSociology of Education$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/O29000 606 $aSociology of Education$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/X22070 615 0$aInternational education . 615 0$aComparative education. 615 0$aStudy skills. 615 0$aForeign study. 615 0$aEducational sociology. 615 0$aEducational sociology . 615 0$aEducation and sociology. 615 14$aInternational and Comparative Education. 615 24$aStudying abroad. 615 24$aSociology of Education. 615 24$aSociology of Education. 676 $a370.116 676 $a370.9 700 $aYe$b Lily Lei$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$01061886 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910299530803321 996 $aIntercultural Experience and Identity$92520927 997 $aUNINA
