在后福特主义政治经济全球化的预期下,各国和大学越来越多地寻求建立战略性的跨国教育和研究联盟。本文分析了全球校舍,这是一个关键的教育政策平台,旨在通过与外国大学建立网络和合作,将新加坡转变为知识和创新中心。研究了两项全球校舍倡议--新加坡与麻省理工学院(MIT)的联盟,以及旨在将新加坡国立大学重塑为“以亚洲为中心的领先全球大学”的机构重组。我们概述了当国家及其教育机构寻求全球化时出现的一些复杂性和意想不到的结果。
In anticipation of a globalising post-Fordist political economy, countries and universities are increasingly pursuing strategic transnational education and research alliances. This article analyses the Global Schoolhouse, a key education policy platform that aims to transform Singapore into a knowledge and innovation hub by establishing networks and collaborations with foreign universities. Two Global Schoolhouse initiatives are examined—the alliance between Singapore and MIT (Massachusetts Institute of Technology), and the institutional restructuring aimed at re-modelling the National University of Singapore into a ‘leading global university centred in Asia’. We outline some of the complexities and unanticipated outcomes which emerge when nations and their education institutions seek to globalise.
