Hey pro-internationalizationist Lance!  I have recently discovered that as 
colleges/universities internationalize/diversify their campuses there is 
definite preference for using the international label over anything global 
because of the exploitative and unequal connotations with globalization -- 
so global studies become international studies...  I have also seen the 
"grassroots" globalization vs. "corporate" globalization distinction used 
by free traders who include equity as part of efficiency or consider 
inequity a misallocation.

Just another kindred internationalizationist
