Details

Traditionally viewed as a positive phenomenon, continued support for student mobility has waned as a result of the financial crisis pushing European solidarity to its breaking point and the fear of excessive EU incursion into the autonomy of Member States with respect to their higher education systems.

In Balancing Student Mobility Rights and National Higher Education Autonomy in the European Union, Alexander Hoogenboom contributes to the debate from a legal perspective by offering recommendations seeking to reconcile the mobility rights of Union citizens for study purposes and the need to respect Member State autonomy in organising their higher education systems. The argument made suggests rethinking established principles in EU free movement law while encouraging greater EU involvement in student funding opportunities.
