International Status Anxiety and Higher Education: The Soviet Legacy in China & Russia
Hong Cong :
Springer, 2018.
Academic editor: A. Oleksiyenko, Q. Zha, Chirikov I., J. Li
This volume provides a critical perspective on the Soviet legacy of superpower competition in the higher education systems of China and Russia. The book examines the tensions among multi-level forces that strive to advance progressive university policies and practices on the one hand, and on the other hand work to restore old-style hyper-centralization and indoctrination. It tracks the de-Sovietization of higher education, which aimed to integrate Chinese and Russian universities into global higher education but resulted in inducing status anxiety in the global hierarchies of knowledge development.

Введение. Развитие мягких навыков (soft skills) у студентов вузов является актуальной задачей современной образовательной политики. Однако стандартные программы формирования универсальных компетенций часто оказываются неэффективными в регионах со сложными природно-климатическими и географическими условиями, таких как Камчатский край. В условиях географической изоляции и сурового климата эти навыки трансформируются из инструментов будущего карьерного успеха в важнейшие механизмы профилактики ...
