| Abstract: | This paper aims to investigate the possible framework for encouraging the presence of local dimensions in an internationalised
and globally competitive system by using Taiwan’s higher education system as a case. It begins by discussing the notion of
internationalisation and its implications for higher education. It then turns to look at Taiwan’s responses to these global
developments. It also reviews different opinions on the position and importance of local dimensions in the world of globalised
higher education. Based on these perspectives, the paper advocates promoting the concept of state-building in Taiwan’s as
well as in other higher education systems for preserving or even strengthening the local dimensions of individual academic
systems operating in the international knowledge network. |
