It integrates four levels of analysis, including policy, organization, department, and individual, to understand the mechanisms of policy translation. The research aims to understand why things are as they are and provides insights for practitioners and policy makers in internationalization-focused education reform policy in Japan. \u003c\/blockquote\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFormat\u003c\/strong\u003e: Hardback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLength\u003c\/strong\u003e: 148 pages\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePublication date\u003c\/strong\u003e: 09 December 2022\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePublisher\u003c\/strong\u003e: Taylor \u0026amp; Francis Ltd\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis book delves into a comprehensive case study of policy translation at an esteemed Japanese university. Through an in-depth analysis of the implementation of government-funded reform policies, Black explores the profound role of the university in society, the transition from youth to work, and the intricate systems of organizational management in operation within the university.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBlack's involvement extended to the initial adoption phase of the Super Global project, a policy initiative implemented at the University of Tsukuba, a prestigious Japanese institution. Adhering to a fundamental critical realist perspective, his research is structured across four distinct levels of analysis: the macro level of policy, the organizational level of the university, the departmental level of the English Section, and the individual level of the student. The comprehensive analysis and diverse data sources aim to unravel the internal workings of the organization and comprehend the mechanisms of policy translation that operate within the intricate and interconnected complexity of these four levels.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAt the heart of this research lies the overarching objective of understanding the underlying reasons for the prevailing circumstances. The primary theories that arise from the case study provide valuable guidance for practitioners and policy makers in this domain. It serves as a compelling illustration of internationalization-focused education reform policy in Japan.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 470g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 234 x 156 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9780367819996\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"GrantBlack","offers":[{"title":"Hardback","offer_id":44104107491578,"sku":"9780367819996","price":136.64,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/1671205017892_book.jpg?v=1671524058","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/education-reform-policy-at-a-japanese-super-global-university-policy-translation-migration-and-mutation-9780367819996","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
