Brazil's higher education proposal - internationalization driven by economics

Concerns have been raised about Brazil's evolving national policy for federal universities. The Rectors of these universities, one of whom I spoke to at some depth on a visit to Chile in 2018 (Marcello Knobel), writes in this critique that leaders of the federal universities have not been consulted and that the "Future-seas" policy will amount to a massive divestment in public universities, ultimately leading to greater privatization and the decline of the public good that Brazilian universities currently attempt to fulfill for Brazilian society.
