Abstract

Under the increasing international and cross-cultural educational environment, the limitations of nationalism narrative are emerging, since nationalism narrative mainly focuses on diverse racial, ethnic, and cultural groups with domestic citizenship. The limitations implied in nationalism narrative are overcome in existential aesthetics narrative of MCE. Existential aesthetics narrative situates students in international and cross-cultural educational environment.
