A In this sense, a unitary metric for quality would seek to impose one context upon another. The idea of a ‘world-class university’ is one way in, which developmental contexts, are ignored in order to export a particular model of university function. B The existence, of these kinds of tensions, around internationalization, opens the question. When we talk about measuring the value of internationalization whose internationalisation are we talking about? C Rankings are the new currency of quality. English, the official language of science.
