Description

Explore the complex relationship between education, ideology, and power in this scholarly study from Routledge. This book examines how an influential East Asian expatriate community maintains a sense of identity while living abroad. It focuses on the Japanese white-collar elite in Singapore, looking at how they function as a self-referentially defined in-group within a multicultural environment. Through grounded anthropological observations, the text investigates how schooling practices help maintain national identity. The research addresses themes of unity, diversity, and community building. It provides a deep look into the cultural politics of "Japaneseness" and how nation-state schooling practices shape the lives of those living overseas. This volume is a significant resource for those studying international and comparative education, sociology, and the dynamics of expatriate communities in Southeast Asia.
