ThirdGen: The Third Generation: Dissimilation from Origins and Assimilation into Destination

研究表明，来自穆斯林占多数的国家的移民群体要么缓慢地融入，要么没有完全融入西欧目的地。拟议的全面和新颖的研究设计将解决这个问题，通过研究很少被研究的第三代，揭示移民的持久影响和变革性影响。第三代从起源概念角度的异化将通过将移民的孙辈与他们的祖父母和原籍国土耳其的非移民同行进行比较，揭示代际变化和连续性。它将考虑多个目的地：德国、荷兰、比利时、法国、奥地利、英国、瑞士、丹麦和瑞典。第三代将调查土耳其外来工的孙辈，土耳其外来工是欧洲最大的非欧盟移民，在欧洲有超过500万成员。随着第三代人的成年，ThirdGen将调查两个性别领域，即社会经济成就和家庭过程，即代际关怀、性别态度、宗教信仰和行为，并将其与非移民土耳其同行进行比较（ThirdGen数据集：N=4,672）。该项目将采访在独特的2000个家庭数据集中确定的孙辈，追踪欧洲和土耳其的5万名移民家庭成员的三代人。这种对外来务工人员的孙辈进行的创新的大规模和多地点的检查将产生宝贵的数据，以解决有关代际传播的不同模式和一般过程的问题，并特别关注原籍国和目的地国的第三代。该项目是跨学科的，借鉴了社会学、人口学、社会心理学和移民研究。它将在一体化和国际移徙研究、社会学、人口学和心理学方面开辟新天地。调查结果将为政策提供信息，并提高公众对移民长期变革性影响的理解和认识。

Research shows migrant groups from Muslim majority countries are either integrating slowly or not integrating fully into Western European destinations. The proposed comprehensive and novel research design will tackle this problem, looking at the seldom-studied third generation to reveal the enduring impact and transformative influence of migration. ThirdGen's dissimilation from origins conceptual perspective will shed light on generational change and continuity by comparing the grandchildren of migrants to their grandparents and non-migrant counterparts in the origin country: Turkey. It will consider multiple destinations: Germany, Netherlands, Belgium, France, Austria, UK, Switzerland, Denmark and Sweden.ThirdGen will examine grandchildren of Turkish guest workers, the largest non-EU diaspora with well over five million members in Europe. As the third generation is coming of age, ThirdGen will survey two gendered domains, namely socioeconomic attainment and family processes, i.e., intergenerational care, gender attitudes, religiosity and behaviours, comparing them to their non-migrant Turkish counterparts (ThirdGen dataset: N=4,672). The project will interview grandchildren identified in the unique 2000 Families dataset, tracing three generations of 50,000 migrant family members in Europe and non-migrants in Turkey.This innovative large-scale and multi-sited examination of the grandchildren of guest workers will generate invaluable data to address questions on the differential patterns and generic processes of intergenerational transmission with a special focus on the third generation across origin and destination countries. The project is interdisciplinary, drawing on sociology, demography, social psychology and migration studies. It will break new ground in integration and international migration studies, sociology, demography and psychology. The findings will inform policies and improve public understanding and awareness of the long-term transformative impact of migration.
