Book Synopsis Transforming Study Abroad by : Neriko Musha Doerr
Download or read book Transforming Study Abroad written by Neriko Musha Doerr and published by Berghahn Books. This book was released on 2018-12-17 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Written for study abroad practitioners, this book introduces theoretical understandings of key study abroad terms including “the global/national,” “culture,” “native speaker,” “immersion,” and “host society.” Building theories on these notions with perspectives from cultural anthropology, political science, educational studies, linguistics, and narrative studies, it suggests ways to incorporate them in study abroad practices. Through attention to daily activities via the concept of immersion, it reframes study abroad not as an encounter with cultural others but as an occasion to analyze constructions of “differences” in daily life, backgrounded by structural arrangements.
Book Synopsis American Legal Education Abroad by : Susan Bartie
Download or read book American Legal Education Abroad written by Susan Bartie and published by NYU Press. This book was released on 2021-07-06 with total page 421 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A critical history of the Americanization of legal education in fourteen countries The second half of the twentieth century witnessed the export of American power—both hard and soft—throughout the world. What role did US cultural and economic imperialism play in legal education? American Legal Education Abroad offers an unprecedented and surprising picture of the history of legal education in fourteen countries beyond the United States. Each study in this book represents a critical history of the Americanization of legal education, reexamining prevailing narratives of exportation, transplantation, and imperialism. Collectively, these studies challenge the conventional wisdom that American ideas and practices have dominated globally. Editors Susan Bartie and David Sandomierski and their contributors suggest that to understand legal education and to respond thoughtfully to the mounting present-day challenges, it is essential to look beyond a particular region and consider not only the ideas behind legal education but also the broader historical, political, and cultural factors that have shaped them. American Legal Education Abroad begins with an important foundational history by leading Harvard Law School historian Bruce Kimball, who explains the factors that created a transportable American legal model, and the book concludes with reflections from two prominent American law professors, Susan Carle and Bob Gordon, whose observations on recent disruptions within US law schools suggest that their influence within the global order of legal education may soon fall into further decline. This book should be considered an invaluable resource for anyone in the field of law.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since the 1960s, Japan has been a historical leading study abroad destination for US undergraduate students.

Based on extensive original survey data and interviews with alumni over nearly 50 years of the Japan Study Program, the book provides a historical perspective on the personal impacts of study abroad on academic, professional, and personal development. The author further explores knowledge diplomacy seen as the creation of an in-depth understanding of the host country, familiarity of the host region, and awakened consciousness of the world through subsequent life experiences.

Book excerpt: For all Study Abroad programs.

Book Synopsis The Floating University by : Tamson Pietsch
Download or read book The Floating University written by Tamson Pietsch and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2023-05-19 with total page 332 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "In 1926, New York University's Floating University sailed 500 American collegians around the globe, hoping to make them better citizens of the world and demonstrate a new educational model. It didn't go well. Tamson Pietsch here excavates a rich picture of this folly, its origins, and the insights it affords into an America that was being defined increasingly by both imperialism and the professionalization of higher education. For Pietsch, the voyage traced the expanding tentacles of US power, even as it tried to somehow model a new kind of cultural expertise-with an all-white student body and crew, traveling under the implicit protection of American hegemony"--

Book Synopsis America in the World by : Robert B. Zoellick
Download or read book America in the World written by Robert B. Zoellick and published by Twelve. This book was released on 2020-08-04 with total page 764 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: America has a long history of diplomacy–ranging from Benjamin Franklin, Alexander Hamilton, and Thomas Jefferson to Henry Kissinger, Ronald Reagan, and James Baker–now is your chance to see the impact these Americans have had on the world. Recounting the actors and events of U.S. foreign policy, Zoellick identifies five traditions that have emerged from America's encounters with the world: the importance of North America; the special roles trading, transnational, and technological relations play in defining ties with others; changing attitudes toward alliances and ways of ordering connections among states; the need for public support, especially through Congress; and the belief that American policy should serve a larger purpose. These traditions frame a closing review of post-Cold War presidencies, which Zoellick foresees serving as guideposts for the future. Both a sweeping work of history and an insightful guide to U.S. diplomacy past and present, America in the World serves as an informative companion and practical adviser to readers seeking to understand the strategic and immediate challenges of U.S. foreign policy during an era of transformation.
