Abstract

The initiation of Yenching Academy, as an institution to promote internationalization of higher education, was controversial for its inequality in treating Chinese students and international students. This inequality resulted from China’s past traumatic historic narrative and its demand for a higher international profile, involved by nationalism. The right way to promote internationalization is to replace this nationalism with universalism.
