Abstract
This paper offers a conceptual reflection upon the wider geographical implications of transnational higher education and how, because of a rather impoverished understanding of the geography of transnational education, these implications have rarely been addressed. The paper makes two particular points. First, it argues for a pressing need for the geographies of TNE to be subjected to academic scrutiny, and considers why, to date these geographies have been neglected. It argues that the kinds of narratives seen around globalisation in the 1990s are similarly reflected in discussions of TNE today, circulating mainly in the ‘grey’ literature, three decades on. Second, it suggests that TNE has the potential to create progressive geographies, through a confrontation with difference.
