Xi Wu examines how national and transnational forces and discursive
logic mediate international secondary school students’
educational routes and life trajectories. Drawing upon an
ethnographic research program involving Chinese students in a
Canadian international secondary school, Wu employs Ong’s notion
of transnational cultural logics to examine students’ lives and
how they flexibly and not-so-flexibly engaged in their learning and
self-making in their transnational spaces. The book provides a
comprehensive understanding of international students as agentic
and socially regulated subjects in their transnational routes.
These insights contribute to advancing curriculum and program
improvements. Furthermore, Wu applies theoretical notions of
"transnationalism" and "global and transnational cultural logics"
to the examination of specific phenomenon and analyzes how cultural
logics stemming from families, nations, and societies govern
subjectivities in their actions and aspirations. This insightful
book will be of interest to a wide range of education stakeholders,
as well as scholars and researchers in comparative and
international education.
