La Universidad Internacional en América Latina: un Nuevo Paradigma para el Siglo XXI

Abstract

The subject of internationalization of the Brazilian university in Latin America is discussed and analyzed. The goal is to study the contributions of this internationalization for the university, which relevance and episteme is the production and exchange of scientific knowledge, considering that knowledge has become a permanent value in the post-modern world. The techniques employed were literature search, document analysis and quantitative research by survey. The university has always been supra-national, being its mission to continue being the source of knowledge production and diffusion, reason of its history, definition of its episteme and justification of its ethos.
