Building on key concepts from the social sciences and migration studies, such as identity, integration and transnationalism, the author links these with emerging theoretical notions, such as mobility, translocality and cosmopolitanism. Ethnic identities, transnational ties and integration pathways of the youngsters and adults are compared, focusing on intergenerational transmission in particular and recognizing mobility as an inherent characteristic of contemporary lives. Departing from the traditional focus on the adult children of settled migrants and the main immigration countries of continental North-Western Europe, this study centres on Southern Europe and Great Britain and a very recently settled immigrant group. The result is an illuminating early look at a second generation “in-the-making”. Indeed, the findings provide ample grounds for pragmatic and forward-looking policy to enable these migrant-origin youngsters, and others like them, to more fully attain their potential. The book ends with a call to reassess the term “second generation” as it is currently used in policy and scholarly works. Children of migrants seldom see themselves as a particular and homogeneous group with ethnicity as an intrinsic identifying quality. More importantly, they make use of all the limited resources at their disposal, and view their integration processes through broader geographies – showing sometimes a cosmopolitan orientation, but also using localized reference points, such as the school, city, or urban neighbourhood.IMISCOE Research Series,2364-4087Emigration and immigrationSocial structureEqualityChildhoodAdolescenceSociologyMigrationhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/X24000Social Structure, Social Inequalityhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/X22010Childhood, Adolescence and Societyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/X22090Sociology, generalhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/X22000MigrationSocial Structure, Social InequalityChildhood, Adolescence and SocietySociology, generalEmigration and immigration.Social structure.Equality.Childhood.Adolescence.Sociology.Migration.Social Structure, Social Inequality.Childhood, Adolescence and Society.Sociology, general.304.8Vathi Zanaauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut915233UkMaJRU9910131282903321Migrating and Settling in a Mobile World2051338UNINA
