Childhood and Migration in Europe: Portraits of Mobility, Identity and Belonging in Contemporary Ireland: summary, description and annotation

We offer to read an annotation, description, summary or preface (depends on what the author of the book "Childhood and Migration in Europe: Portraits of Mobility, Identity and Belonging in Contemporary Ireland" wrote himself). If you haven't found the necessary information about the book — write in the comments, we will try to find it.

Childhood and Migration in Europe explores the under-researched and often misunderstood worlds of migrant children and young people, drawing on extensive empirical research with children and young people from diverse migrant backgrounds living in a rapidly changing European society. Through in-depth exploration and analysis of the experiences of children who moved to Ireland in the first decade of the 21st century, it addresses the tendency of migration research and policy to overlook the presence of children in migratory flows. Challenging dominant adult-centric perspectives on contemporary global migration flows and presenting understandings of the lives of migrant children and young people from their own experiences, this book presents a detailed exploration of childrens lives in four different migrant populations in Ireland. With a unique comparative perspective, Childhood and Migration in Europe advances upon current conceptualisations of migration and integration by interrogating accepted views of migrant children and focusing on childrens own voices and experiences. It challenges the prevailing assimilationist discourses underlying much existing research and policy, which often construct migrant children as deficient in different ways and in need of being integrated.

Series Editors Preface
In recent years there has been a burgeoning of published works on migration. In the late 1970s, post colonial immigration galvanised academics into exploring the impact on the receiving society of those who had previously been subjects of metropolitan domination. Others deconstructed the experiences of those who had made the journey from periphery to core in search of economic advancement. In the following decades, political tensions and pressures in the Middle East and Southern Africa produced a new wave of migrants and with them, the geographical and theoretical expansion of academic interests. The accession of the A8 countries to the EU in 2004 and then Romania and Bulgaria in 2007 brought the focus back to Europe. However, in spite of the vacillating globalisation and localisation of migration studies, as the authors of this book so rightly claim, the worlds of migrant children and young people have been, under-researched and often misunderstood. This volume seeks to (re)evaluate the experience and behavioural patterns of migrant children in order to highlight their agency as well as their vulnerability and to record their interpretations and experiences of transnationalism in order to expand upon the more frequently studied regions of integration and/or marginalisation.
