This article analyzes strategic planning in Russia’s export of higher education and the prospects for its implementation under the ongoing fragmentation of international relations. The purpose of the study is to assess how much the country’s priorities have changed in the export of higher education and how it has affected its goal setting and geographical guidelines.
The article uses a multidisciplinary approach, since the problem of exporting education is at the intersection of two research areas: international relations and foreign policy and higher education and the internationalization of higher education. The empirical material of the study includes strategic documents regulating foreign policy and the export of education, documents of ministries and departments of the Russian Federation, and statistical data on the state of higher education in the Russian Federation. The authors also analyze research publications, analytical reports, and other materials on this topic.
