Transnational education and social positioning between Brazil and Europe. A qualitative study among migrant families

该研究将为跨国家庭的跨学科研究领域增添教育研究视角。本研究将通过关注跨国家庭的教育生涯、策略和经验，引入迄今为止被忽视的研究视角。我们将通过分析巴西和欧洲家庭中跨国儿童的教育生涯（Gardner 2012）来探索空间和社会流动性之间的相互联系。分析框架将考虑阶级对教育策略的影响，以及教育背景下阶级与性别和种族化过程的相互作用。基于多地点民族志和民族志田野研究的方法论，将从不同家庭成员以及教育机构和移民协会代表的角度重构跨国职业生涯。通过探索教育生涯对跨国社会领域内社会定位过程的影响，该研究将有助于跨国教育空间理论概念的发展。

The study will add an educational research perspective to the interdisciplinary field of research on transnational families. By focussing on educational careers, strategies and experiences of transnational families, the study will introduce a research perspective which has been neglected up to now. We will explore interconnections between spatial and social mo-bility by analysing educational careers of transnational children (Gardner 2012) in families between Brazil and Europe. The frame of analysis will take into account the impact of class on educational strategies, as well as the interaction of class with gender and racialisation processes in educational contexts. Based on the methodology of multi-sited-ethnography and ethnographical field research, transnational careers will be reconstructed from the perspectives of different family members as well as representatives of educational institutions and migrant associations. By exploring the effects of educational careers on processes of social positioning within transnational social fields, the study will contribute to the development of the theoretic concept of transnational educational spaces.
