Partnership Between Universities in Japan and South Africa

Abstract

Cross-border partnerships are increasingly important for higher education in the twenty-first century. While virtually all universities in the world, in their pursuit of internationalisation, strive to enter into partnerships with universities abroad, there is no synthesis of literature on the many case studies on such partnerships or the various models of international partnership to guide such activities. The purpose of this book is to fill this lacuna and to serve as a frame for the chapters and discussions in the rest of the volume.
