Detailing ethnographic research conducted in U.S. public high
schools, this text considers how Chinese immigrant youth's
educational positionality and identity are shaped by diasporic and
transnational migrant experiences. The Transnational Experiences of
Chinese Immigrant Youth in the US presents a critical examination
of themes relevant to Chinese immigrant education such as academic
achievement, English language proficiency, and cultural and social
capital. The intersection between diaspora and education is
explored to highlight the existence of multi-layered youth
identities, which exist beyond and between national boundaries, and
which embody the concept of global citizenship. Building on this
realization, chapters consider how institutional structures might
be better designed to meet the needs of students who arrive in host
countries due to larger global forces. This text will primarily be
of interest to doctoral students, researchers, and scholars with an
interest in multicultural education and the sociology of education.
Those interested in the Asian diaspora, race and ethics, and
educational research methods more broadly will also benefit from
this volume.
