Abstract

Transnational academic mobility is considered the key element of the internationalization of higher education. One region that is often overlooked in such discussions is Central Eurasia. In this analysis, we propose that, unlike in other former Soviet republics, the internationalization of higher education in this region depends on a complex configuration of market forces, modernization, and ideology.
