Abstract

”It’s a call to action!” This poignant quote by co-editor Ching-Ching Lin signifies both the purpose and
essence of the book Internationalization in Action: Leveraging Diversity and Inclusion in the Globalized
Classroom. The book addresses the conundrum of diversification and internationalization in higher education from multiple perspectives. This is in and of itself not a small task. In the question posed by one
author, is it indeed possible to “make a global citizen” (Alatriste, p.116)? While the book and its rich
plethora of carefully chosen contributions is carried forward by relevant sociocultural, linguistic, and
critical literacy theories, it is mainly driven by purposeful and well-designed studies in classroom action research that appeal to researchers, higher education administrators, and stakeholders involved in campus life and student services alike.
