Social Class and Cosmopolitan Parenting in Taiwanese Families
Cosmopolitanism, or 'being international,' has become an ideal to which parents aspire for their children in East Asia.

Using data from the longitudinal family interviews of 30 families in Taipei, Taiwan, in 2008 and follow-up inter…

The authors recognize that local life and Western culture are entangled on this island, as a consequence of Taiwan's colonial legacy and globalization. By examining the transnational industries and m…
