Internationalization of the Social Sciences - Asia-Latin America-Middle East-Africa-Eurasia (Paperback)

"Internationaliation of the Social Sciences" rests on the setup of international scientific infrastructures, networks and research agendas, yet it has also stimulated discussions on academic dependency and the need for the indigeniation of theories and methods. This book traces phenomena that accompany the internationaliation of social sciences in different parts of the world. Contributions from East Asia, India, Russia, Turkey, Lebanon, Jordan, South Africa and Latin America offer manifold perspectives on the pathways and desiderata of internationaliation and make this volume an important basis for future debates.
