This insightful volume presents important new findings about
parenting and parent-child relationships in ethnic and racial
minority immigrant families. Prominent scholars in diverse fields
focus on families from a wide range of ethnicities settling in
Canada, China, Israel, Italy, the Netherlands, and the United
States. Each chapter discusses parenting and parent-child
relationships in a broader cultural context, presenting
within-group and cross-cultural data that provide readers with a
rich understanding of parental values, beliefs, and practices that
influence children's developmental outcomes in a new country. For
example, topics of investigation include cultural variation in the
role of fathers, parenting of young children across cultures, the
socialization of academic and emotional development, as well as the
interrelationships among stress, acculturation processes, and
parent-child relationship dynamics. This timely reference: *
explores immigration and families from a global, multidisciplinary
perspective; * focuses on immigrant children and youth in the
family context;* challenges long-held assumptions about parenting
and immigrant families;* bridges the knowledge gap between
immigrant and non-immigrant family studies;* describes innovative
methodologies for studying immigrant family relationships; and*
establishes the relevance of these data to the wider family
literature. Parental Roles and Relationships in Immigrant Families
is not only useful to researchers and to family therapists and
social workers attending to immigrant families, but also highly
informative for persons interested in shaping immigration policy at
the local, national, and global levels.
