This chapter seeks to recognize the ever-growing digital hyphen—understanding truths and knowledge construction—among the authors’ research, relationships, and critical reflections to uncover the meaning of this online academic path. This exploration is framed through a feminist lens to understand the phenomenon of the intersections of the authors’...

Unlike in the United States, there is currently no broad classification of higher education institutions in Europe. Building on European Tertiary Education Register data, we propose a new comprehensive and cross-country cla...

In view of the so-called ‘refugee crisis’ which began in late 2014, there is a growing potential demand for higher education opportunities amongst refugee communities in England and more widely in Europe.
