Issued without a dust jacket. -- This book addresses one of the most pressing political and social issues in Europe and North America today: the fate of migrant youth. Moving beyond simplified cultural explanations, it argues for a nuanced understanding based on the everyday experiences of these young individuals. By focusing on mechanisms of social exclusion and how migrant youth navigate their 'outsidership,' the book presents a generative model that categorizes different forms of social organization and mentalities among migrant youth. Grounded in a detailed empirical study, it explores three distinct contexts - a street gang, a Muslim student association, and a sports club - offering insights into how these groups address issues of spatial politics, recognition, and misrecognition. The book demonstrates how these different social organizations represent unique solutions to the challenges of identity and belonging in migrant youth communities. Using a comparative approach, it delves into the complexities of inter-ethnic interaction, identity work, and the spatial politics of recognition. It also broadens the discussion to include personal narratives, time horizons, and national contexts, providing a multi-layered analysis of how migrant youth construct their identities in both local and transnational spaces. Contents include discussions on Norwegian immigration debates, identity work from a life-world perspective, and a detailed examination of gang culture, Muslim student associations, and sports clubs. The concluding sections emphasize the challenges of multiculturalism, the persistence of stereotypes, and the politics of recognition across different social contexts, offering valuable insights into the broader societal and political implications of migrant youth integration. This comprehensive analysis of migrant youth sheds light on broader discussions around national belonging, multiculturalism, and the transnational dimensions of identity.
