Mapping Racial and Ethnic Studies in Canada
Mapping Racial and Ethnic Studies in Canada:Retrospective and Prospective Views of Canadian Ethnic Studies Chairs James Frideres (bio), Shibao Guo (bio), Abdie Kazemipur (bio), Morton Weinfeld (bio), and Lloyd Wong (bio) Introduction (Shibao Guo and Lloyd Wong) Canada has always been diverse with respect to 'race' and ethnicity. In 1901, only three decades after Confederation, the English and French comprised 57% and 31% of the Canadian populatio…
Theorising decolonisation in the context of lifelong learning and transnational migration
In the age of transnational migration, the practices and policies of lifelong learning in many immigrant-receiving countries continue to be impacted by the cultural and discursive politics of colonial legacies. Drawing on a wide range of anti-colonial and anti-racist scholarship, we argue for an approach to lifelong learning that aims to decolonise the ideological underpinnings of colonial relations of rule, especially in terms of its racialised …

Immigration, Racial and Ethnic Studies in 150 Years of Canada
Canada’s history, since its birth as a nation one hundred and fifty years ago, is one of immigration, nation-building, and contested racial and ethnic relations. In Immigration, Racial and Ethnic Studies in 150 Years of Canada: Retrospects and Prospects scholars provide a wide-ranging overview of this history with a core theme being one of enduring racial and ethnic conflict and inequality. The volume is organized around four themes where in each…
Connecting Transculturalism with Transformative Learning
The impact of transnational migration with activities across transnational borders has reconfigured multiple social and public identities calling for shifting to transculturalism as a theoretical framework in understanding the changing nature of adult education. Transculturalism becomes a mode of being and learning where humans interact with each other in a culturally diverse environment. Integrating different identities and connecting the global…

Chinese returnees’ motivation, post-return status and impact of return
The study analyzed 143 empirical studies on Chinese returnees published during 2005−2015. Three major categories of research topics emerged from the analysis: motivations for return, post-return status and the impact of returnees in China. The review detected two major debates in the literature concerning the impact of remittances and the contributions of returnees. Though variables such as gender, age, marital status and duration of the stay abr…
Internationalization of Canadian higher education
The internationalization of higher education in Canada is happening at a rapid pace. One manifestation of internationalization is the increasing enrolment of international students in Canadian institutions. There is little research on international undergraduate students’ experiences from their own perspectives as they adapt to a new educational system in Canada. This research examines how internationalization policies at a university in Western …
Immigration, Integration and Welcoming Communities
Despite the fact that municipalities are primary recipients of immigrants to Canada, they almost have no formal role in developing immigration and integration policies and programs. As such, they are primarily left or kept out of the current model of immigration and integration governance. Since immigration and integration are not stand-alone issues, they require partnership and collaboration involving multiple levels of government and community …
From International Migration to Transnational Diaspora
Revisiting Multiculturalism in Canada
In 1971 Canada was the first nation in the world to establish an official multiculturalism policy with an objective to assist cultural groups to overcome barriers to integrate into Canadian society while maintaining their heritage language and culture. Since then Canadaâ s practice and policy of multiculturalism have endured and been deemed as successful by many Canadians. As well, Canadaâ s multiculturalism policy has also enjoyed international …

The politics of recognition
The unprecedented transnational mobility that skilled immigrants have experienced in the global war for international talents has made foreign credential recognition a policy challenge for many countries. Under the pressure of critics, Canadian governments recently launched new initiatives to facilitate foreign qualification recognition through policy interventions. Using critical discourse analysis, this article analyses the policy orientation o…
Economic Integration of Recent Chinese Immigrants in Canada's Second-Tier Cities
Un examen de l'intégration économique des immigrés chinois à Calgary et à Edmonton révèle dans cette étude que ceux qui sont arrivés récemment se heurtent à des obstacles sur plusieurs fronts, en particulier en ce qui concerne la langue et l'emploi. De plus, suite à leur immigration au Canada, ils ont vécu une déqualification et une dévaluation de leur éducation et de leur expérience professionnelle passées. En conséquence, beaucoup d'entre eux o…
Multiculturalism, Ethnicity and Minority Rights
Ethno-specific organizations are often criticized for threatening national unity, diluting Canadian identity, and promoting ghettoization and separatism. Drawing from two case studies, this article examines the role of Chinese ethnic organizations in responding to changing community needs in Edmonton and Calgary. The study results suggested that ethno-specific organizations can be an effective alternative in providing accessible and equitable soc…

Multiculturalism Turns 40:Reflections on the Canadian Policy Lloyd Wong and Shibao Guo This is the second special issue published by Canadian Ethnic Studies to commemorate the 40th anniversary of multiculturalism. In the last special issue, we traced the genesis of multiculturalism to the Royal Commission on Bilingualism and Biculturalism in Canada, also known as the Laurendeau-Dunton Commission, which was established almost fifty years ago under…

Migration and communities
This commentary article focuses on the theme of migration and communities. It raises a number of important concerns inherent in the report. The report mistakenly adopts the 'sameness' approach, thus negating Britain's unprecedented super‐diversity that is the result of increasing migration. It wrongly assumes that all migrants are the same and require similar modes of services and lifelong education programmes. A second issue pertains to the soci…
Toward recognitive justice
As a result of globalization and transnational migration, many countries are becoming increasingly ethno‐culturally diverse. Unfortunately, lifelong learning has failed to integrate cultural difference and diversity into educational environments. Rather than facilitating immigrants’ adaptation, lifelong learning has become a vehicle for assimilating immigrants into the dominant norms and values of the host society. To build inclusive and socially…
Difference, deficiency, and devaulation
Many immigrant professionals experience devaluation and denigration of their prior learning and work experience after arriving in Canada. The roots of nonrecognition can be traced to the following. First, epistemological misperceptions of difference and knowledge lead to a belief that the knowledge of immigrant professionals, particularly those from Third World countries, is deficient,incompatible and inferior, hence invalid. Second, an ontologic…
Governing through non/recognition
Despite claims that prior learning assessment and recognition (PLAR) can act as a transformative social mechanism and a means of social inclusion, this study reports that PLAR has become a serious barrier to adult learning rather than a facilitator. Drawing from Foucault’s concept of governmentality, the study examines the difficulties that immigrant professionals have experienced in having their foreign credentials and work experience recognized…
