It examines the policies adopted towards them by institutions and governments round the world, exploring who travelled, why, and who paid for them. In 1860 most international students travelled within Europe; by 2010 the largest numbers were from Asia. Foreign students have shaped the universities where they studied, been shaped by them, and gone on to change their own lives and societies. Policies for student mobility developed as a function of student demand and of institutional or national interest. At different times they were influenced by the needs of empire, by the cold war, by governments' search for soft power, by labour markets, and by the contribution students made to university finance. Along with university students, others travelled abroad to study: trainee nurses, military officers, the most deprived and the most privileged schoolchildren. All their stories are a vital part of the world's history of education and of its broader social and political history. 650 0 $a Students, Foreign $v Cross-cultural studies. 650 0 $a Students, Foreign $x Social conditions. 650 0 $a Foreign study $x History. 650 0 $a Foreign study $x Social aspects. 650 7 $a Foreign study. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00931877 650 7 $a Foreign study $x Social aspects. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00931884 650 7 $a Students, Foreign. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01136169 650 7 $a Students, Foreign $x Social conditions. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01136199 655 7 $a Cross-cultural studies. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01423769 655 7 $a History. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01411628 776 08 $i ebook version : $z 9783030499464 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20220526020258.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=A119EAE4CF3111EB9A1890BA3BECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
