Childhood, Youth and Migration Connecting Global and Local Perspectives By: Christine Hunner-Kreisel Publisher: Springer Print ISBN: 9783319311098, 3319311093 eText ISBN: 9783319311111, 3319311115 Copyright year: 2016 Format: PDF Available from $ 109.00 USD SKU 9783319311111 This book shows the different ways in which migration matters in the context of global and local childhood and youth. Furthermore, it highlights that childhood, youth and migration as well as local and global perspectives need to be thought and analyzed together, to address the significant dimensions of social inequality in the context of growing up. Migration as a phenomenon is most often motivated by the search for a better life. Very often children and young people, migrating alone or together with their families, migrate to ameliorate their own or others’ living conditions and seize opportunities for realizing a good life. Today as well as in the past this search for a better life is very often triggered by socio-economic reasons, war or terrorism. Against the backdrop of the topic raised above the book deals with children and young people’s own perspective in countries of migration. It promotes the idea of connecting global and local issues of childhood and youth with a special focus on questions of education. It studies questions of global and local living and highlights living circumstances shaped by patterns of migration and mobility. Download eBook Free: https://ouo.io/UoMcz9c
