Summary
"This edited volume showcases different scholars from Latin America and the United States and their thoughts about child migration in the Americas. It takes an intersectional approach that regards migrant and refugee children in terms of gender, race and ethnicity, nationality and citizenship. It looks at child migrants and children of deportees, their family and school life, their experience as wage-laborers, the legislation and policies that affect them, the cultural and literary production on them, and other such topics, which will be studied through an anthropological, sociological, political science, educational and cultural studies approach"-- Provided by publisher.
