本文探讨了美国学生积极参与国外当地社区的方式是否面临风险。制约因素包括美国留学的新人口结构、对国际教育和庇护项目设计的偏见态度、致力于主要代表学生观点的研究企业，以及全球化对交际实践和思维习惯的影响。为了对抗这些影响，提出了激进立场的要素。
This paper considers the ways in which American students' active engagement in local host communities abroad is at risk. Constraining forces include the new demographics of American study abroad, prejudicial attitudes toward international education and sheltered program designs, a research enterprise committed to representing the perspectives of students primarily, and the influence of globalization on communicative practice and habits of thought. To counter these influences, the elements of an activist stance are proposed.
