요약 : The purpose of this qualitative study was to examine and identify the nature of sustainable, cross-border partnerships between Christian liberal arts institutions of higher education. The study was conducted using a comparative case methodology consisting of two partnerships. Individuals involved in the development of the partnerships were interviewed and partnership documents examined. This process provided the data which was analyzed for the study. Each partnership involved one institution in the United States and one in Eastern Europe. The Eastern European institutions were located in Lithuania and Russia. The literature indicated that cross-border partnerships are just one method of many to internationalize a higher education institution. According to Andringa (2001), the best institutions will be involved in such partnerships. North American Christian higher education institutions can provide operational and academic program knowledge to their cross-border partner that assists them in developing an effective institution. The study determined that the cases followed the phases of the relationship development model identified by Dwyer, Schurr, and Oh (1987). These 5 phases are: (a) Awareness, (b) Exploration, (c) Expansion, (d) Commitment, and (e) Dissolution. At the conclusion of the research, neither partnership had dissolved; but both were operating at reduced levels for different reasons. Additionally, the data indicated that there were 7 themes involved in creating effective cross-border partnerships: (a) Mission Congruence, (b) Individual Relationships, (c) Trust, (d) Communication, (e) Social Capital, (f) Presidential Leadership and Champions, and (g) Finances. The development of a cross-border partnership should focus on these 7 themes.
