ABSTRACT
The crisis surrounding COVID-19 has unsettled some of the key assumptions underlying the dominant understanding of internationalization in Australian higher education. In this paper, I discuss how Australian universities have talked about their recovery from the commercial turbulence, and what this reveals about the hegemonic construction of internationalization and about the prospects for reimagining and reconceptualising internationalization in terms beyond commercial.
