AGUIRRE, Félix; CRUZ, María Angélica  e  BANDA, María Ignacia. The sociocultural dimension of globalization in narratives about experiences of international university exchanges. Rev.latinoam.cienc.soc.niñez juv [online]. 2018, vol.16, n.2, pp.881-895. ISSN 1692-715X.  https://doi.org/10.11600/1692715x.16216.

This paper analyzes the experiences of a group of young students from Denmark who studied at the University of Valparaiso as part of an international university exchange program. The life story methodological technique allows us to describe not just the way in which the experience of participating in an exchange program transforms students’ identities and academic, professional and ideological trajectories, but also how it affects their perceptions and concepts of their places of origin and destination. The findings from this study contribute to the debate about the sociocultural and political dimensions of globalization, particularly on links between the values of global citizenship and the different ways of understanding and living alterity.

Palavras-chave : Globalization; university; international student mobility; social values; citizenship; biographical method; alterity (Unesco Social Sciences Thesaurus).
