Re-imagining Intellectual Leadership in Post-Soviet Higher Education

The project aims at: 1) re-examining intellectual leadership in the post-Soviet context of higher education and explore challenges experienced by young scholars in joining the global networks of science and innovation; 2) conceptualizing how intellectual leadership relates to the current practice of institutional leadership and administration, and how various epistemological communities shape academic leadership roles through knowledge production, boundary transgression, academic citizenship and public intellectualism in post-Soviet universities; 3) enhancing a cross-cultural discourse on capacity-building for intellectual leadership in the transformative systems of higher learning and academic science.
