Description

Product Description Taking a multi-disciplinary perspective, and one grounded in human rights, Unaccompanied young migrants explores in depth the journeys migrant youth take through the UK legal and care systems. Arriving with little agency, what becomes of these children as they grow and assume new roles and identities, only to risk losing legal protection as they reach eighteen? Through international studies and crucially the voices of the young migrants themselves, the book examines the narratives they present, and the frameworks of culture and legislation in to which they are placed. Challenging existing policy, it questions, from a social justice perspective, what the treatment of this group tells us about our systems and the cultural presuppositions on which they depend. Review “The aspirations, experiences and trajectories of unaccompanied young migrants are at the core of this important edited collection which includes some of most knowledgeable experts in the field.” Nando Sigona, University of Birmingham “This important and timely book provides a comprehensive analysis of current challenges related to forced migration, from the perspective of unaccompanied children and youths’ subordinated position, while also emphasising their resilience.” Anna Lundberg, Linköping university About the Author Sue Clayton has directed two films on child asylum: Hamedullah: The Road Home (2013) and Calais Children: A Case to Answer (2017), both have been submitted in asylum and High Court appeal cases. She is Professor of Film at Goldsmiths University of London and consultant producer for ITV and Channel 4 News. Anna Gupta is a Professor of Social Work at Royal Holloway, University of London. Anna has undertaken research and published articles on a range of subjects linked to child care and protection practice. Her particular interests include work in the family courts, poverty and social work, and practice with Black and minority ethnic children and families. Katie Willis is Professor of Human Geography at Royal Holloway, University of London.
