Legally British, these young people encounter race as a barrier to becoming truly "English." Hall breaks with conventional ethnographies about immigrant groups by placing this paradox of modern citizenship at the center of her study, considering Sikh immigration within a broader analysis of the making of a multiracial postcolonial British nation. The postwar British public sphere has been a contested terrain on which the politics of cultural pluralism and of social incorporation have configured the possibilities and the limitations of citizenship and national belonging.Hall's rich ethnographic account directs attention to the shifting fields of power and cultural politics in the public sphere, where collective identities, social statuses, and cultural subjectivities are produced in law and policy, education and the media, as well as in families, peer groups, ethnic networks, and religious organizations.Hall uses a blend of interviews, fieldwork, and archival research to challenge the assimilationist narrative of the traditional immigration myth, demonstrating how migrant people come to know themselves and others through contradictory experiences of social conflict and solidarity across different social fields within the public sphere. Lives in Translation chronicles the stories of Sikh youth, the cultural dilemmas they face, the situated identities they perform, and the life choices they make as they navigate their own journeys to citizenship. 606 $aSOCIAL SCIENCE$2bisac 606 $aDiscrimination & Race Relations$2bisac 606 $aSikh youth$zGreat Britain 606 $aImmigrants$zGreat Britain 606 $aSouth Asians$zGreat Britain 606 $aChildren of immigrants$zGreat Britain 606 $aRegions & Countries - Europe$2HILCC 606 $aHistory & Archaeology$2HILCC 606 $aGreat Britain$2HILCC 615 7$aSOCIAL SCIENCE 615 7$aDiscrimination & Race Relations 615 0$aSikh youth 615 0$aImmigrants 615 0$aSouth Asians 615 0$aChildren of immigrants 615 7$aRegions & Countries - Europe 615 7$aHistory & Archaeology 615 7$aGreat Britain 676 $a305.235 700 $aHall$b Kathleen$f1957-$01034889 801 0$bDE-B1597 801 1$bDE-B1597 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910457343603321 996 $aLives in Translation$92454283 997 $aUNINA
