Global Studies in Higher Education (GSHE) operates as an interdisciplinary hub or "think tank" of university administrators, scholars, researchers, and students, and of partners and leaders outside the university. GSHE advances key theories, themes, debates, and methodological tools that link university research to issues of international business and the political economy, to cultures in the age of globalization, and to global security and the environment. Policy topics-including communication networks, education protocols, governance covenants, and others-serve as initial foci of GHSE.
Each issue of global-e: A Global Studies Electronic Journal features a brief essay authored by leading scholars and practitioners, offering provocative reflections on a range of topics with the aim of stimulating discussion among the global studies community. The journal is managed by a collaboration of global studies programs at the Universities of Illinois, North Carolina, Wisconsin-Madison, and Wisconsin-Milwaukee.
