Citizenship Education and Migrant Youth in China

Recent mass rural-urban migration in China has created a new urban underclass. However, youth identities in newly industrialized countries are largely neglected, and their inclusion in urban public schools remains a surprisingly slow process.This volume examines the consequences of urban schooling and citizenship education through which school and social processes contribute to the production of unequal class relations. It opens up the "black box" of citizenship education in China and examines the effect of school and societal forces on social mobility and life trajectories.
