The book provides the reader with an insight into education exchange and the subsequent effects on educational sovereignty. The writer draws on critical education, dependency, and transnational and interdependence theories. The defining features of educational sovereignty are developed in this book. The book demonstrates that state actors are not the only actors that play important roles in the maintenance of educational sovereignty but also non-state actors.

Transnational education has become broader as new delivery models beyond the mobility of students and the mobility of educational materials have emerged. In addition to providing for the commercialisation of education, transnational education also presents a platform for partnership through franchising, twinning arrangements, branch campuses, and corporate programmes. The relationship with foreign education providers can, therefore, be either competitive or collaborative, a point that above perspectives fail to address. This book, therefore, addresses transnational education’s impact on the relationship between donor and recipient states.
