Sumario:Internationalization in higher education is a complex process involving multiple actors with sometimes divergent agendas. Initially focused on exchanges and cooperation, it has evolved into a competitive approach, generating tensions between promoting peace, academic collaboration, and national identity. The internationalization of higher education in China has been driven by the "Open Doors" policy, which has sought to modernize Chinese universities along Western lines. This process has taken three main approaches: sending students and academic staff abroad, integrating international dimensions into local teaching and learning, and collaborating with foreign institutions to offer transnational programs. However, this drive towards internationalization faces challenges as it clashes with the nationalist agenda of the PRC government.
