In this insightful volume, Richard Alba and Jennifer Holdaway bring together a team of renowned social science researchers from around the globe to compare the educational achievements of children from low-status immigrant groups to those of mainstream populations in these countries, asking what we can learn from one system that can be usefully applied in another. Working from the results of a five-year, multi-national study, the contributors to The Children of Immigrants at School ultimately conclude that educational processes do, in fact, play a part in creating unequal status for immigrant groups in these societies. In most countries, the youth coming from the most numerous immigrant populations lag substantially behind their mainstream peers, implying that they will not be able to integrate economically and civically as traditional mainstream populations shrink. Despite this fact, the comparisons highlight features of each system that hinder the educational advance of immigrant-origin children, allowing the contributors to identify a number of policy solutions to help fix the problem. A comprehensive look at a growing global issue, The Children of Immigrants at School represents a major achievement in the fields of education and immigration studies. 410 0$aSocial Science Research Council 606 $aSocial integration$zEurope 606 $aSocial integration$zUnited States 606 $aChildren of immigrants$xEducation$zEurope 606 $aChildren of immigrants$xEducation$zUnited States 606 $aChildren of immigrants$xEconomic conditions$zEurope 606 $aChildren of immigrants$xEconomic conditions$zUnited States 606 $aChildren of immigrants$xSocial conditions$zEurope 606 $aChildren of immigrants$xSocial conditions$zUnited States 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aSocial integration 615 0$aSocial integration 615 0$aChildren of immigrants$xEducation 615 0$aChildren of immigrants$xEducation 615 0$aChildren of immigrants$xEconomic conditions 615 0$aChildren of immigrants$xEconomic conditions 615 0$aChildren of immigrants$xSocial conditions 615 0$aChildren of immigrants$xSocial conditions 676 $a305.23086912 702 $aAlba$b Richard$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aHoldaway$b Jennifer$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 712 02$aSocial Science Research Council (U.S.), 801 0$bDE-B1597 801 1$bDE-B1597 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910480511503321 996 $aThe Children of Immigrants at School$92482319 997 $aUNINA
