The political process of international education: Complementarities and clashes in the Manitoba K-12 sector through a multi-level governance lens

Abstract: International education has become a policy sector of growing importance to Canada. With increased government regulations, disconnect is often observed between the intended policy outcomes and practice. This study aims to explain this disconnect by analyzing the heterogeneity among stakeholder interests. It focuses on 1) distribution of authority; 2) heterogeneity of values; and 3) complementarities and clashes in policy issues. A multi-level governance (MLG) framework (Chou et. al., 2017; Hooghe Marks, 2003)… Show more

“…In addition, the government's creation of the Advanced Education, Skills and Immigration Ministry in January 2021 was intended to house PSE, immigration and workforce/labour and international education together in order to link training and skill development with economic growth and immigration strategies. Supporting the transition of international students as "ideal immigrants" is a public policy area that has resulted from close cooperation between the federal and provincial governments (Brunner, 2017;Dam et al, 2018;Scott et al, 2015;Tamtik, 2018;Tamtik & O'Brien-Klewchuk, 2020).…”

“…Canadian scholars have been critical of the recent framing of international education as a revenue-generating industry that prioritizes recruitment of international students as the sole basis of internationalizing (Guo & Guo, 2017;Knight, 2014;Sá & Sabzalieva, 2018;Scott et al, 2015;Tamtik, 2018;Tamtik & O'Brien-Klewchuk, 2020;Trilokekar & El Masri, 2016;Viczko & Tascón, 2016). As Trilokekar and El Masri (2016) cogently summarized, "as international education becomes increasingly linked to immigration, recruitment and retention of international students, it cannot just be about numbers" (p. 558) but should focus more on fostering social cohesion as a society through promoting a sense of shared citizenship.…”
