这篇文章考察了大学使命的转变--从国家建设和社会发展，到围绕共同的全球挑战的全球竞争力和参与。在东亚的大学，知识的翻译往往是在霸权的背景下进行的，而不是通过自愿的学术活动。本文从东亚大学本土化的学术方法出发，探讨了东亚大学的潜力。这也引发了人们对翻译损失的担忧，这可能会导致人们对大学的本质特征产生误解，如学术自由和大学自治。
This article examines the transformation of university missions—from nation-building and social development, toward global competitiveness and engagement around common global challenges. At universities in East Asia, the translation of knowledge tends to be implemented within a context of hegemonic power, rather than through voluntary academic activities. This article discusses the potential of universities in East Asia, based on their indigenous academic approaches. It also raises concerns over “losses in translation” that may lead to misunderstandings around the essential characteristics of universities, such as academic freedom and university autonomy.
