For an intertextual reflection on higher education

Abstract

The reflections that follow constitute the preface to the thematic dossier “Higher Education: (re) configurations of a moving field”. It is, above all, an intertextuality exercise, intentionally contained, in which the author seeks to highlight the most expressive (or with the greatest pedagogical, political or sociological interest) each of the articles was able to develop. Above all, the articles reflect important research contributions and the engaged academic stance of national and foreign researchers with significant insertion in the debates about the (re) configurations that the complex field of Higher Education has been suffering in the last decades. These are plural views that contribute significantly to understanding the contradictions and tensions present in this field, the ongoing movements of change and the multiple implications of the current pandemic context.
