Co-published with AIEAInternational higher education has evolved, in some respects dramatically, in the decade since publication of the first edition of this handbook. The new issues, trends, practices and priorities of research that evolved over this time have in some instances been transformed by one of the most dynamic and tumultuous periods in the history of international higher education, brought on by the pandemic, a re-emergence of nationalism, and the recognition of the power imbalances between the developed economies and the global south, and racial inequities within and across borders. This new edition addresses the myriad changes across all aspects of international education, each chapter addressing to the extent possible the reality of the present in which they were written and offering some insights for the future.

Recognizing changing economic, geopolitical, climatic, and public health issues, as well as the importance of international and cross-cultural collaboration to address global problems, this handbook offers a comprehensive range of models, data and ideas to stimulate new directions in the conception and practice of international education.This edition reflects today’s concerns around inclusion, diversity and equity, and how international education is being changed by issues such as decolonization, the focus on learning outcomes, the impact of digital tools to enhance access and learning and collaboration such a virtual exchange, competition for resources, risk, new patterns of mobility, and new models such as joint programs and qualifications.As with the first edition, the chapters often intentionally pair scholars and practitioners from different parts of the world, and include text boxes that highlight concrete institutional, national, or regional experiences, providing diverse voices and perspectives from around the world. This comprehensive new edition provides ideas, concepts, theories and practical ideas from around the world for those seeking to enhance the quality of the three core functions of higher education: teaching, research and service to society. It constitutes an essential resource for everyone involved in the...

"This comprehensive handbook comes at exactly the right time as international higher education reinvents itself following the initial years of disruption from COVID. The experts not only provide a solid foundational understanding of the internationalization of higher education, but also offer insights on the evolution taking place right now and the innovations we can expect to become norms in the future."

“Having regularly drawn on the ground-breaking first edition of the SAGE Handbook of International Education, I am excited to welcome this timely and informative second edition. We are collectively responding to the disruption to many of our traditional forms of internationalisation of higher education, consequent of the global effects of, and responses to, the COVID pandemic. As we reimagine our futures in international education, I am extremely grateful to the authors for sharing evolving and innovative thinking and practice in internationalisation of higher education at this time. I am especially appreciative of the leading experts who, drawing on this global expertise, have succeeded in providing us with such an important and helpful resource.”

At a time that we face challenges in ensuring the ongoing internationalisation of higher education that we could never have envisaged when the first edition was published. I have no doubt that this Handbook will contribute significantly to the response to those challenges."
