This book offers a unique developmental perspective on identity
construction in the context of mobility and transition to
adulthood. Drawing upon semiotic cultural psychology, it embeds
identity construction into the processes of meaning making; viewing
identity as a field of hyper-generalised signs that are constantly
reconstructed through encounters with social others in cultural
worlds, and which allow individuals to make sense of themselves in
relation to their lived pasts, experienced presents and imagined
futures. Martsin invites the reader to travel with eight young
adults as they embark on their developmental journeys and seek to
make sense of issues that matter most to them: home, adventure and
belonging, friendships, recognition, and future-planning. The book
is an invaluable resource for students and researchers interested
in understanding the experiences of emerging adults in contemporary
globalized world, but also for those interested in identity
processes from a semiotic, cultural and developmental perspective.
