Abstract

After the end of the Second World War, the global international system initially took shape, making the United States the only builder and leader of the world order. From then, the “Global Vision” in American higher education began to emerge. Taking both the cultural root, namely, “Need of the Others”, and the international situation into consideration, this study intends to unfold the evolution of the “Global Vision” in American higher education since 1945, to identify its main features in three stages, which is divided by the attitudinal changes towards the “others”, and to analyze the factors that influence its development. Hopefully by looking into the development trajectory of “Global Vision” in American higher education, this study will shed light on American perception of the international community and changes in US global policy.
