Abstract

It is commonplace that actors in higher education at the national and institutional level have engaged in bilateral and cooperation with neigbouring countries well before internationalisation, Europeanisation and globalisation became catchwords in higher education politics. Bilateral cooperation continues to play a role, also in enhancing internationalisation and Europeanisation. This chapter looks at a case of bilateral cooperation, namely that between Slovenia and Austria. It identifies instruments the actors used and that continue to be in place besides supranational and international ones.
