文摘This paper explores the internationalization of higher education initiatives of Hong Kong,being one of the Special Administrative Regions(SAR)of China,within the context of the Chinese Mainland-Hong Kong(CM-HK)relations.Historical,social,economic,and political ties between Hong Kong and the Mainland of China,their economic and political interdependency,and a time series analysis of Hong Kong’s University Grants Committee(UGC)statistical data(local and non-local participation,geographic composition,and cost analysis of UGC-funded programs)are used to support what the author calls the“intra-nationalization of higher education.”This forms a unique internationalization strategy,whereby a sub-national region such as Hong Kong and possibly Macao,orients its internationalization strategy towards a motherland,in this case China.
