Internationalization. International academic mobility. Scale. Post-critical approach.Abstract
International academic mobility is part of a web of internationalization policies that produce a difference between global and local scales, defining what is considered good practice in terms of pedagogy and university management. It based on fixed spatial imaginaries about globalization, borders, nations and movement. In the same way, corroborated by market practices, which use corporate strategies to classify and hierarchize, internationalization produces places of excellence and supports an asymmetrical epistemological cartography. This article aims to investigate lineal scale enunciations in the literature, such as interculturality, immersion, international campus, among others. New theoretical tools are proposed to complex and deepen such concepts, promoting the understanding of international student’s path as non-static.
