Migration and the Education of Young People 0-19: An introductory guide
by Mabel Ann BrownMigration and the Education of Young People 0–19 investigates migration from a number of perspectives to consider the changing dynamics of society within different countries. Examining the data associated with global migration by focusing on case studies from a wide range of countries, it provides detailed and balanced coverage of this politically sensitive topic to explore the educational needs of migrant young people, the impact of large-scale migration to and from countries and the policy challenges that individual countries face when ensuring adequate provision for migrant young people within their education systems. Chapters cover: The reasons why people might move Social and emotional learning in Britain: a tool to guard against cultural pollution? Migration into a global city: the economic and educational success of London Latvian people on the move and the impact on education People’s movement – Greece Return migration in Lithuania: incoming challenges for children’s education The United States, Latin America, immigration and education Tanzanian street children: victims, ordinary lives or extraordinary survivors?

Migration und Migrant(inn)en im Schulbuch
by Helmut GeuenichSchulbücher filtern - wie andere Massenmedien auch - Informationen über Gesellschaft und Politik. Sie erreichen über die Schule und den Unterricht Kinder und Jugendliche in großer Zahl und beeinflussen das Bewusstsein vieler Menschen. Insofern kann eine Analyse der Darstellung von Migration und Migrant(inn)en in Schulbüchern einen wichtigen Beitrag zur Erklärung der Einstellung vieler Bundesbürger zu entsprechenden Themen leisten. Eine derartige Untersuchung erscheint auch deshalb von Bedeutung, weil Schulbücher in dieser Hinsicht im Unterschied zu anderen Medien (Fernsehen / Zeitungen) selten, für Nordrhein-Westfalen noch nie, wissenschaftlich erforscht wurden.
Migration, Displacement, and Higher Education: Now What? (Political Pedagogies)
by Maria Höhn Brittany Murray Matthew Brill-CarlatThis open access book is a nuanced introduction to Forced Migration Studies and a toolkit for faculty and undergraduate students, with a special emphasis on community-engaged learning. Experts from the social sciences, humanities, arts, and experimental sciences offer interdisciplinary perspectives to translate critical analysis into concrete action. The collection highlights activists, artists, and educators who have initiated projects in cooperation with and for the benefit of populations affected by migration and displacement. Together, these contributions powerfully articulate the relevance of the liberal arts and social sciences in preparing students to meet increasingly interconnected global challenges such as forced migration, climate change, and Covid-19.
Migration, Diversity, and Education
by Fred Dervin Saija BenjaminThe concept of Third Culture Kids is often used to describe people who have spent their childhood on the move, living in many different countries and languages. This book examines the hype, relevance and myths surrounding the concept while also redefining it within a broader study of transnationality to demonstrate the variety of stories involved.
Migration, Education and Change (Routledge Research in Education #Vol. 7)
by Sigrid LuchtenbergThe diverse contributions in this book discuss both the classical and the more recent forms of migration. Illustrating the developments in various European countries and Australia as a 'classical immigration state', they tackle these different forms of migration and investigate their divergent educational implications regarding identity, citizenship and language education. This book will be of essential interest for students and researchers interested in the current discourse on multicultural education.
Migration, Education and Employment: Pathways to Successful Integration (Education, Equity, Economy #10)
by Marianne Teräs Ali Osman Eva EliassonThis is an open access book which focuses on different aspects of education, employment, and successful integration of migrants in three countries: Norway, Sweden, and Switzerland. The chapters in this book reflect on these issues from micro, meso and macro perspectives; some are based on interviews with migrants and people who work with them, others on documents and literature about migration. There are different pathways for skilled migrants to vocations. Some start working in their previous vocations after arriving in the new environment. Some re-enter their professions but on a lower level. Some can re-train themselves in a new vocation, and some will go to further education, as studies in different chapters of this book suggest. Common for successful integration seems to be several intertwined factors: the target language competence, strong motivation and agency, supporting networks and supporting persons, as well as structural opportunities of the new environment. The book’s editorial board takes an eclectic view, hoping to start an academic debate about what ‘successful integration’ means. While discussions about the integration of migrants tend to focus on integration failures, there are millions of migrants, in different countries, who have successfully integrated into their new societies.
Migration, Mobility and Education: Examining the Role of Family and Schooling (Routledge Advances in Sociology)
by Kate Hoskins Bernard BarkerThis book examines the role of family and schooling through an interpretive, qualitative, intergenerational case study. It examines the formation of academic and vocational aspirations by second generation (G2) migrant students from diverse international backgrounds. Looking at the influence of family background, the changes and impacts of the migrant experience, and the effectiveness of the Academy, Hoskins and Barker interpret the successes of a cohort of sixth form migrant students from diverse backgrounds. They ask key questions about how participants perceive their lived experiences and imagined futures; how their aspirations and identities relate to their background circumstances; and in what ways the school and teachers enable and facilitate their future progress and potential career pathways. The findings challenge prevailing pessimism about the role of families and schools in enabling social mobility; and suggests the possibility that there may be important messages here for social mobility more widely. How do G2 migrants buck the trend?A valuable resource for scholars of social mobility as well as for educators – especially those working with migrant learners. The use of theory, policy analysis and genealogy will provide students with accessible social mobility case studies.
Migration, Religion and Early Childhood Education (Wiener Beiträge zur Islamforschung)
by Ednan AslanAlthough it is rarely given sufficient consideration in either scholarly or political debates, early childhood education plays a crucial role in the integration process of young immigrants in European countries, since it not only enables the children to be integrated into society, both linguistically and culturally, but it also provides their parents with the opportunity, through their children, to view the society more directly and to reflect on their own values in the encounter, or to potentially seek new orientations. The quality of young migrants’ educational achievements, which have repeatedly caused current political debates in European countries, should not be considered independently of the elementary education measures since they are very closely related.Prof. Dr. Ednan Aslan is Chair of Islamic Religious Education at the Institute for Islamic Theological Studies at the University of Vienna.
Migration, Religion, and Schooling in Liberal Democratic States (Routledge Research in Religion and Education)
by Bruce A. ColletSpeaking to an increasingly fluid world involving the migration of peoples and cultures, the global resilience of religion, and the role of schooling in fostering liberal democratic values, this book investigates the degree to which secular public schools might facilitate religious migrants’ societal integration. Adopting a multidisciplinary approach which draws from political philosophy, the philosophy of education, and the sociology of religion, Collet argues that public schools in liberal democratic states can best facilitate the pluralistic integration of religious migrant students through adopting policies of recognition and accommodation that are not only reasonable in the light of liberal democratic principles, but also informed in terms of what we understand regarding the natural role religion often plays in acculturation.

Migrationsgesellschaftliche Diskriminierungsverhältnisse in Bildungssettings: Analysen, Reflexionen, Kritik
by Paul Mecheril Susanne Bücken Noelia Streicher Astride VelhoDass in pädagogischen Zusammenhängen nicht nur das Thema Diskriminierung zum Gegenstand werden kann, sondern pädagogische Settings selbst Orte der Diskriminierung sein können, stellt den Bezugspunkt des vorliegenden Bandes dar. Mit Bezug auf diese gewissermaßen Verdopplung des Themas Diskriminierung in pädagogischen Settings werden in dem Sammelband Komplexitäten, Widersprüchlichkeiten und Verstrickungen, welche grundlegende Spannungsverhältnisse der kritischen Thematisierung migrationsgesellschaftlicher Diskriminierung betreffen, analysiert und reflektiert. Die Beiträge wenden sich dabei unterschiedlichen pädagogischen Bereichen zu.

Welchen Beitrag leisten diese zur gesellschaftlichen Positionierung der Schüler*innen? Wie wird der Bezug zu den als „Herkunftsländer“ geltenden nationalen Kontexten hergestellt und gestaltet? Wie wird damit umgegangen, dass die Migrationssprachen nicht nur Kommunikationsmittel, sondern auch gesellschaftliche Differenzmerkmale sind?

Miles, Ornette, Cecil: Jazz Beyond Jazz
by Howard MandelMiles Davis, Ornette Coleman, and Cecil Taylor revolutionized music from the end of the twentieth century into the twenty-first, expanding on jazz traditions with distinctly new concepts of composition, improvisation, instrumentation, and performance. They remain figures of controversy due to their border-crossing processes. Miles, Ornette, Cecil is the first book to connect these three icons of the avant-garde, examining why they are lionized by some critics and reviled by others, while influencing musicians across such divides as genre, geography, and racial and ethnic backgrounds. Mandel offers fresh insights into their careers from interviews with all three artists and many of their significant collaborators, as well as a thorough overview of earlier interpretations of their work.
