Recensioner i media

This volume is a wonderful, comprehensive compendium of study-abroad assemblages. It is a most intensive read, simply because the reader travels with cultural texts all over the world, all at once, discovering the practices and discourses of study-abroad....The rendering of how the study-abroad performance is balanced, enacted and reproduced makes this book an invaluable resource for understanding the culture of study-abroad, and provides a unique glimpse into a rite de passage of the American university.
