These environments would seem to provide a best-case scenario for the reception of immigrant youth. But that is not always the case. Coercive Concern explores how stereotypes of Muslim immigrants in Western liberal societies flow through public schools into everyday interactions, informing how Muslim youth are perceived by teachers and peers. Beyond simply identifying the presence of racialized speech in schools, this book uncovers how coercive assimilation is cloaked in benevolent narratives of care and concern. Coercive Concern provides an ethnographic critique of the "concern" that animates integration policy in Danish schools. Reva Jaffe-Walter focuses on the experiences of Muslim youth at a public school where over 40% of the student body is of immigrant descent, showing how schools operate as sites of governance. These efforts are led by political leaders who promote national fears of immigrant take-over, by teachers in schools, and by everyday citizens who are concerned about "problems" of immigration. Jaffe-Walter exposes the psychic and material costs immigrant youth endure when living in the shadow of social scrutiny, but she also charts a path forward by uncovering the resources these youth need to attain social mobility and success. 410 0$aAnthropology of policy (Stanford, Calif.) 606 $aMuslim youth$xEducation$zDenmark 606 $aImmigrant youth$xEducation$zDenmark 606 $aChildren of immigrants$xEducation$zDenmark 606 $aMuslims$xCultural assimilation$zDenmark 606 $aNationalism$zDenmark 606 $aLiberalism$zDenmark 615 0$aMuslim youth$xEducation 615 0$aImmigrant youth$xEducation 615 0$aChildren of immigrants$xEducation 615 0$aMuslims$xCultural assimilation 615 0$aNationalism 615 0$aLiberalism 676 $a371.829088/29709489 700 $aJaffe-Walter$b Reva$01704356 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910815850503321 996 $aCoercive concern$94090342 997 $aUNINA
