Cultural Conflict and Adaptation (1990) examines the alienation and
cultural conflicts faced at school by the children of a small group
of Hmong who have settled in La Playa, California. The educational
process for these children is an example of cultural conflict and
adjustment patterns which may be found in many other populations in
the world.
The Hmong people, with a total population of about 5 million, have
a long history of statelessness and migration. About 90,000 Hmong
have entered America as war refugees in the last 15 years. This
study looks at the history and plight of the Hmong and the way in
which such a minority fits into the American dream. More
specifically the book examines the problems faced by the children
of a small group of Hmong who have settled in La Playa, in East
Central California. The study looks at the alienation and culture
conflict faced by children in such minorities in the USA.
