摘要
This article addresses a gap between discussions of transnationalism in our field that largely remain focused on implications for educational attainment and current political discourses about immigrant youth and citizenship. Drawing on insights from our own research with transnational youth, we suggest that their experiences in transnational social fields offers them unique forms of critical consciousness, civic and political awareness, and commitment to democratic rights that are foundational for active democratic citizenship.
