 Asian Americans in Class: Charting the Achievement Gap Among Korean American Youth By Jamie Lew 2003 | 133 Pages | ISBN: 0807746932 | PDF | 1 MB This book challenges the "model minority" stereotype of Asian American students as a critical step toward educating all children well. Focusing on Korean American youth in New York City schools, Jamie Lew compares high-achieving students attending an elite magnet high school with students who have dropped out of a neighborhood high school. She finds that class, race, social networks, parental strategies, and schooling resources all affect the aspirations and academic achievement of Asian American youth. This in-depth examination: * Debunks the simplistic "culture of poverty" argument that is often used to explain the success of Asian Americans and the failure of other minorities. * Illustrates how Asian Americans, in different social and economic contexts, negotiate ties to their families and ethnic communities, construct ethnic and racial identities, and gain access to good schooling and institutional support. * Offers specific recommendations on how to involve first-generation immigrant parents and ethnic community members in schools to foster academic success. * Looks at implications for developing educational policies that more fully address the needs of second-generation children.

Fabrice Bensimon, "Artisans Abroad: British Migrant Workers in Industrialising Europe, 1815-1870" English | ISBN: 0198835841 | 2023 | 302 pages | AZW3 | 7 MB Between 1815 and 1870, when European industrialisation was in its infancy and Britain enjoyed a technological lead, thousands of British workers emigrated to the continent. They played a key role in several sectors, like textiles, iron, mechanics, and the railways. These men and women thereby contributed significantly to the industrial take-off in continental Europe. Artisans Abroad examines the lives and trajectories of these workers who emigrated from manufacturing centres in Britain to France, Belgium, Germany, and other countries, considering their mobilities, their culture, their politics, and their relations with the local populations. Fabrice Bensimon reminds us that the British economy was not just oriented towards the Empire and the USA, but also towards the continent, long before the European Union and Brexit, and shows the critical role played by migrant workers in the Industrial Revolution.
