摘要

In this introductory chapter, the authors review the historiography of international student migration and examine the Cité Internationale Universitaire de Paris from multiple perspectives: as a global campus, established in 1925 and which was the first international campus of the University of Paris; as a site of academic diplomacy, shaped by increasing competition among nations during the twentieth century to attract international students; and as a space of interaction and internationalism. This exploration prompts reflection on the social backgrounds, trajectories, political and cultural affiliations, and practices of the international students brought together in this unique setting.
