Where Did Weak and Strong Ties Go Wrong?. 506 0 Open access.|5GW5XE 520 This open access book provides new conceptualisations on the networks of migrants and their descendants in accessing the labour market. Although references to social networks are common in discussions of migration, simplified ideas of co-ethnic networks often obscure the reality, for example confounding ties with co-ethnics and 'strong ties'. This open access book addresses key questions about the role of networks in migration contexts, particularly in relation to how migrants and their descendants, access the labour market and develop their employment trajectories over time. Rather than adopting a narrow essentializing ethnic lens, the research presented in this book explores intersectional identities of class, generation and gender. By focusing on the kinds of capital circulating between ties, including the dark side of social capital, the book offers insights into power dynamics and the potentially exclusionary dimension of networks. Taking a long term view, across generations, the research in this book shows how migrants and their descendants mobilize resources to tackle discrimination and enhance their position within particular labour markets. Drawing on robust quantitative and rich qualitative data, this book provides a primary source to students, scholars and policy-makers focusing on issues of migration, social networks, social mobility as well as labour market inequalities. 588 0 Online resource; title from PDF title page (SpringerLink, viewed March 25, 2022). 590 Springer Nature|bSpringer Nature Open Access eBooks 650 0 Emigration and immigration|xEconomic aspects. 650 0 Migrant labor. 650 2 Transients and Migrants. 650 7 migrant workers.|2aat 650 7 Emigration and immigration|xEconomic aspects.|2fast |0(OCoLC)fst00908694 650 7 Migrant labor.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01020711 655 0 Electronic books. 700 1 Keskiner, Elif,|eeditor. 700 1 Eve, Michael,|d1952-|eeditor. 700 1 Ryan, Louise,|d1965-|eeditor. 830 0 IMISCOE research series.|x2364-4095 914 on1305500717 947 MARCIVE Processed 2023/02/10 994 92|bSTJ
