Synopsis

As societies grapple with an unprecedented refugee and migration crisis, child refugees and migrants-who constitute a particularly vulnerable immigrant category-have been surprisingly overlooked in immigration scholarship. Interdisciplinary Perspectives on Child Migrants: Seen but Not Heard addresses this lapse by presenting analyses of child refugees and migrants. This comprehensive overview considers the challenges facing young migrants and refugees through richly varied academic perspectives that integrate communication, media studies, journalism, sociology, criminology, cultural studies, international relations, and public policy. Employing diverse theoretical and methodological lenses, this collection addresses the sociopolitical and cultural exigencies prompted by child migrants and refugees, engaging a range of academic and policy discussions. Relevant to scholars and policymakers alike, Interdisciplinary Perspectives on Child Migrants is an integral and foundational text to explore this relatively unchartered region of immigration research.
