This book aims to study the current transformations of higher education in the Brazil, Russia, India, China, and South Africa (BRICS) countries. The conditions imposed by the Covid pandemic exposed many vulnerabilities in higher education systems, but also provided valuable lessons that led to the implementation of effective changes.Educational changes are being applied to programmes, projects, practices, and policies with varying degrees of success depending on the context: the needs of students and staff have changed, and considerable attention has been given to the effective continuation of all academic activities through the use of technology; often the nature of higher education and its role in society are being contemplated and ways of sustainable development are being debated. Therefore, contributors from the five BRICS member states present research findings and critical views on the recent development of higher education in their own countries, providing an opportunity for a unified effort and collective input to explore the transformation and reform of higher education.This book is intended for researchers, policymakers, and postgraduate students in higher education, educational governance, and comparative education.

This book critically examines the discourses and policy responses surrounding China's success in the Programme for International Student Assessment (PISA), offering alternative approaches to engaging with Chinese education through a nuanced understanding of its experiences and intellectual traditions.China’s exceptional PISA performance has ignited a global conversation on 'learning from Chinese education,' yet this discourse often reflects the geopolitics of knowledge and remains entangled in Orientalist frameworks rooted in Western modernity. By drawing on decolonial theory, the book challenges these reductive representations and advocates for a deeper engagement with Chinese intellectual resources. It explores how such engagement can illuminate the complexities of Chinese education while fostering meaningful dialogues between China and other traditions. These dialogues aim to cultivate social-ecological relationality and interdependence through education, offering insights that extend beyond China’s borders.This volume is an essential resource for scholars and students in Chinese education studies, comparative and international education, decolonial studies, and the philosophy and culture of education.
