Studies in international education: A research perspective

Abstract

This article seeks to place "studies in international education" within the broader context of educational science, and to contribute to the improvement of the theoretical basis of analysis and research methods of international education. Recognition of "international education" as a special research area is, given its growing importance in practice and in research, inevitable and necessary. The Journal of Studies in International Education can play a role in establishing it as a means of communication and dissemination between researchers and practitioners. The start of the Journal is a marking point, not only because of its scholarly and global perspective, hut also because of its ability to position the study of international education in a specific place and platform within the broad field of educational research.
