对于移民儿童来说，搬到一个新的国家是一件令人兴奋、焦虑的事情，也是管理这一重大过渡的实际挑战。本文借鉴社会资本和社交网络的概念来考察流动儿童在迁移后获得服务的情况。使用数据从定性研究与东欧家庭在苏格兰，我们确定了一系列的累积障碍，限制儿童获得服务，并说明他们的经验是如何形成的种族，社会阶层和地方。研究表明，移徙儿童在移徙后往往处于不利地位，并发展自己的机制来减轻移徙对其生活的影响。我们认为，流动儿童自己的社交网络是相关的，他们需要通过一个更个性化的方法进行分析。(C)2014作者《儿童与社会》由约翰·威利父子有限公司和国家儿童局出版。
For migrant children, moving to a new country is marked by excitement, anxiety and practical challenges in managing this significant transition. This paper draws upon the concepts of social capital and social networks to examine migrant children's access to services post-migration. Using data from a qualitative study with Eastern European families in Scotland, we identify a range of cumulative barriers that limit children's access to services and illustrate how their experiences are shaped by ethnicity, social class and place. The study shows that migrant children are often disadvantaged post-migration and develop their own mechanisms to mitigate the impact of migration on their lives. We argue that migrant children's own social networks are relevant and they need to be analysed through a more individualised approach. (C) 2014 The Authors.
