Resumen
BRUNNER, José Joaquín. Globalization of higher education: critique of its ideological standing. Rev. iberoam. educ. super [online]. 2010, vol.1, n.2, pp.75-83. ISSN 2007-2872.
Higher education (HE) holds a privileged place in contemporary ideology and is understood to bring a series of key benefits and opportunities to the development and good performance of countries. Global flows of knowledge, information and ideas imply opportunities and improvements to any economy that invests in post-secondary education, which is represented by universities as the ideal model of HE. Is this world of information and knowledge really more egalitarian, however? Have flows of ideas and publications become any more symmetrical? Are world-rank institutions really within reach of all countries? What role does Latin America play in global geopolitics in terms of the knowledge-based society?
Palabras llave : Higher education; globalization; knowledge-based society; Latin America.
