The anatomy of immigration enforcement
Objective This article identifies how experiences with immigration enforcement during childhood come to have long‐standing socio‐emotional impacts in adulthood. Background Scholarship shows adverse experiences in childhood to have enduring effects and that enforcement causes a series of hardships, particularly for children. Yet no research to date explains what specifically about enforcement shapes children's lives over time. Methods Using in‐dep…
Eco-activists and the utopian project
Today humanity is facing a sixth mass extinction: the first in 65 million years. The extinction underway is occurring at a rate faster than any previous mass extinction in Earth’s history. Our current forms of extraction economics, overproduction, and consumption are not just unsustainable – they are literally annihilationist towards our biosphere. They endanger the very fabric of life in our planet. Yet to imagine a redesign is nearly impossible…
Nací Allá
In this essay, Joanna Dreby, Sarah Gallo, Florencia Silveira, and Melissa Adams-Corral use a transnational frame to explore the meanings of US citizenship for binational children and its importance to experiences of belonging. Drawing on interviews with children ages six to fourteen living with their Mexican-born parents in rural Puebla, their analysis shows that children view US citizenship as signaling their social location in a historically ba…
Ethnicity and Parental Discipline Practices
Objective Examine whether the relationship between ethnicity and parental discipline practices is consistent across contexts. Background Harsh discipline has been linked to negative child behaviors and adolescent outcomes. In examining harsh discipline, scholars have observed ethnic differences. Methods We use the Early Childhood Longitudinal Study‐Kindergarten Cohort (ECLS‐K) for the United States and the Millennium Cohort Study (MCS) for the Un…
Contextualising the achievement gap
We examine the disparities in educational outcomes for high-income countries as they are reported by the Programme for International Student Assessment (PISA), with a specific emphasis on a more nuanced exploration of SES-based achievement gaps. To explore differences in the educational inequality and disadvantages associated with SES-based achievement gaps by country, we analyze three measures: overall average performance, educational inequality…
The Influence of Foreign-born Population on Immigrant and Native-born Students' Academic Achievement
With recent increases in international migration, some political and academic narratives argue for limiting migration because of possible negative effects on the host country. Among other outcomes, these groups argue that immigrant students have an impact on education, negatively affecting native-born students' academic performance. The authors contextualize the relationship between immigrant status and academic achievement by considering a macro…
