Outward and Upward Mobilities: International Students in Canada, Their Families, and Structuring Institutions (University of Toronto Press, 2019) is edited by Ann H. Kim (York University) and Min-Jung Kwak (Saint Mary’s University). The book is the culmination of Dr Kim’s SSHRC and Academy of Korean Studies-funded project, which was supported by the YCAR. York University contributors include: Elena Chou (Sociology), Ann Kim (Sociology), Guida Man (Sociology), Jean Michel Montsion (Multidisciplinary Studies), and Lorna Wright (Schulich).
The authors investigate the connections between students and institutions. Like other migrant groups, student mobility is a form of social mobility, and one that requires access from a host state. But there are multiple institutions with which students interact and that influence the processes of social mobility. The collection features work by key scholars in the field that explores how international students and their families fare in local ethnic communities, educational and professional institutions, and the labour market.
All are welcome. Light refreshments will be provided.
This event is presented by YCAR with support from University of Toronto Press.
