Migration, Diversity, and Education : Beyond Third Culture Kids / edited by Saija Benjamin and Fred Dervin - 1st ed. - Basingstoke : Palgrave Macmillan , 2015. - xii, 251 p. ; 23 cm.

This scholarly anthology challenges and expands the traditional, often elite framework of the 'Third Culture Kid' (TCK) in an era of unprecedented global mobility. Bringing together international perspectives, the essayists critique static definitions of culture and identity within educational systems. The volume examines the diverse, intersectional realities of contemporary migrant, transnational, and highly mobile students, addressing how language, policy, and social hierarchies shape their schooling experiences. It aims to provide educators and researchers with more fluid, modern tools to understand and support multilingual and multi-background learners.
