Abstract

Setting out against the context of the rise of anti-globalism and the resurgence of nationalism, the first half of the article reviews and discusses the debates of anti-globalism and the resurgence of nationalism as well as their effects on educational development. The second half of the article provides the overview of the special issue. More specially, it will highlight the major arguments presented by the contributors, who are experts in higher education policy and governance studies. The arguments particularly examine how the governments in the Asia–Pacific region have promoted nationalism, on the one hand, and globalisation, on the other hand. Next, we review how nationalism has resurged in higher education policy debates where globalisation is widely contested in the region.
