This volume contains an Open Access Chapter Currently, there are
more than 36 million transnationally mobile children and youth.
Featuring the stories of children and youth from places such as
Myanmar, India, Hungary, the USA, and Central America, Children and
Youths' Migration in a Global Landscape interrogates how
transnational mobility shapes the lives of the relatively young.
This edited collection addresses questions that encourage us to
consider what it means to be a transnationally mobile child or
youth in the 21st century. How does transnational mobility affect
youths' understanding of their ethnic identity? What is the link
between educational attainment and social mobility? How does social
class impact the educational trajectories of return migrant
children? What impact does the knowledge economy have on new norms
and practices related to human capital accumulation? Illustrating
that transnationally mobile children and youths' experiences need
social enquiry, this book pushes all of us to question our
assumptions, challenge well-established theories, and rethink our
understanding of the root causes of social inequality.
