Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Based on her book titled "Multikultiungdom" (Multi Cultural Youth) the author examines processes of integration, ethnic and gender identity formation among young paople of immigrant background in Sweden. Those processes, the author maintains, tend often to be reduced to stereotypical images of cultural differences. Immigrant youth may share similar social conditions characterised by cultural marginalisation and social exclusion. However, their individual careers are based on personal experiences. Using the example of two young girls, two cousins with similar social background, the paper discusses differences in their individual careers. The analysis points to the importance on class, ethnicity and gender, but also to the meaning of personal social networks, family relations and family history.
