Resumo
This doctoral dissertation aims to analyze the role of languages in the internationalization process of higher education. To this end, a case study that surveys the countries and languages included in institutional practices and policies (linguistic policy and internationalization policy), as well as in the academic curricula of graduate professors at a Brazilian federal university located in the Southeast region is carried out to inform and contextualize the discussion of the role of languages in this process. The theoretical framework includes the Bourdieusian notion of symbolic capital (Bourdieu, 1985) in dialogue with the global language system (De Swaan, 2001) to explain the distribution of languages situating the discussion of their role in the internationalization process of the university investigated. The method used for analyzing the role of languages in the internationalization process is mixed, with a quantitative approach regarding the analysis of the occurrence of countries, languages, and international output of the institution's graduate faculty, and a qualitative approach regarding the analysis of autoethnographic data produced by the author based on her experience as an undergraduate and graduate student at the investigated university. The research results indicate that language policies and practices within the university shape the process of internationalization of HE, as the choice of certain languages in policies and teachers’ experiences contribute to a more multilingual and plural vision and practice of internationalization in the production and dissemination of knowledge, fostering an ecology of languages and knowledges in the internationalization of higher education.
