How are young refugees doing in the Nordic welfare societies? Coming of Age in Exile – CAGE
Available online: https://pub.norden.org/nord2021-052/ All the Nordic countries have excellent data on the situation of refugee children and youth. This creates unique opportunities for comparison to better understand the links between the socio-economic context in each country and the integration of young immigrants. CAGE has investigated inequalities in education, labour market participation and the health of young refugees during their formative years, also looking into how these inequalities relate to national immigration policies and other contextual factors.
Global Indian Diasporas
Global Indian Diasporas discusses the relationship between South Asian emigrants and their homeland, the reproduction of Indian culture abroad, and the role of the Indian state in reconnecting emigrants to India. Focusing on the limits of the diaspora concept, rather than its possibilities, this volume presents new historical and anthropological research on South Asian emigrants worldwide. From a comparative perspective, examples of South Asian emigrants in Suriname, Mauritius, East Africa, Canada, and the United Kingdom are deployed in order to show that in each of these regions there are South Asian emigrants who do not fit into the Indian diaspora concept—raising questions about the effectiveness of the diaspora as an academic and sociological index, and presenting new and controversial insights in diaspora issues.
Norwegian Native Art
Often dismissed as an image with which to attract tourists and to endow athletes with associations of power and endurance, the Vikings and Norse mythology seem to have lost their appeal as an element of identity construction in Norwegian society-apart from the phenomenon of metal music, where these elements are essential. This study analyses the functions of Norse themes as they are applied in Norwegian metal culture with regard to the construction and experience of cultural identity, shedding light on the musicians' diverse motivations and intentions. Imke von Helden's research focuses on the adaption of history in metal culture from a Scandinavianist's perspective. She currently works as a research assistant at the University of Koblenz-Landau.

Hvernig farnast ungu flóttafólki á Norðurlöndum? Coming of Age in Exile – CAGE
Available online: https://pub.norden.org/nord2021-056/ Öll norrænu ríkin safna ítarlegum gögnum um stöðu barna og unglinga í hópi flóttafólks. Gögnin gera það að verkum að hægt er að bera saman stöðuna milli landa og auka skilning á þeim áhrifum sem félags- og efnahagslegar aðstæður hafa á aðlögun ungra innflytjenda. CAGE verkefnið rannsakaði ójöfnuð varðandi menntun, atvinnuþátttöku og heilsufar ungs flóttafólks á uppvaxtarárum þess. Jafnframt varpaði verkefnið ljósi á áhrif innflytjendastefnu landanna og annarra þjóðfélagsþátta á ójöfnuðinn.
Hvordan går det unge flygtninge i de nordiske velfærdssamfund? Coming of Age in Exile – CAGE
Available online: https://pub.norden.org/nord2021-034/ Velfærdspolitikkerne i de nordiske lande er på mange måder ens. Der er dog stadig vigtige forskelle mellem de forskellige nordiske landes indvandringspolitik og den økonomiske kontekst for indvandrere.Alle de nordiske lande har gode data om situationen for flygtningebørn og -unge. Dette skaber unikke muligheder for nordiske sammenligninger for bedre at forstå sammenhænge mellem den socio-økonomiske situation i hvert land og integrationen af unge indvandrere. CAGE har undersøgt uligheder i uddannelse, deltagelse på arbejdsmarkedet og sundhed for unge flygtninge i deres formative år og har også undersøgt, hvordan disse uligheder er relateret til nationale indvandringspolitikker og andre relevante forhold.
Hvordan går det med unge flyktninger i Norden? Coming of Age in Exile – CAGE
Available online: https://pub.norden.org/nord2021-054/ Alle de fire nordiske landene har gode nasjonale registerdata om unge flyktningers situasjon når det gjelder deres helse og sosiale livsvilkår. Dette gir unike muligheter for sammenligning mellom de nordiske landene for å kunne forstå hvordan landenes politikk og sosioøkonomiske forhold påvirker integrering av unge innvandrere. CAGE har undersøkt ulikheter i utdanning, arbeidsmarkedsdeltakelse og helse hos unge flyktninger i løpet av deres oppvekst sammenlignet med tilsvarende grupper av barn og unge i majoritetsbefolkningen. Studien har også undersøkt hvordan disse ulikhetene forholder seg til nasjonal innvandringspolitikk og andre kontekstuelle faktorer.
Miten pakolaistaustaiset nuoret voivat pohjoismaisissa hyvinvointivaltioissa? Coming of Age in Exile – CAGE
Available online: https://pub.norden.org/nord2021-055/ Kaikilla Pohjoismailla on kerättynä erinomaista aineistoa pakolaislasten ja -nuorten tilanteesta. Tämä luo ainutlaatuisia mahdollisuuksia vertailla ja ymmärtää paremmin kunkin maan sosioekonomisen tilanteen ja nuorten maahanmuuttajien kotoutumisen välisiä yhteyksiä. CAGE-hankkeessa tutkittiin pakolaisnuorten eriarvoisuutta koulutuksessa, työmarkkinoille osallistumisessa ja terveydessä heidän nuoruusvuosiensa aikana. Lisäksi selvitettiin, miten nämä eriarvoisuudet linkittyvät kansalliseen maahanmuuttopolitiikkaan ja sen kontekstiin.
Hur mår unga flyktingar i Norden? Coming of Age in Exile – CAGE
Available online: https://pub.norden.org/nord2021-053/ Alla de fyra nordiska länderna har nationella register med uppgifter som kan användas för att beskriva flyktingungdomars situation när det gäller hälsa och sociala livsvillkor. Detta ger unika möjligheter för jämförelser mellan de nordiska länderna för att bättre förstå hur policy och ekonomiska förhållanden i samhället påverkar integrationen av unga invandrare. CAGE har undersökt ojämlikhet i utbildning, arbetsmarknadsdeltagande och hälsa hos unga flyktingar under deras formativa ungdomsår jämfört med infödda, och har också undersökt hur dessa ojämlikheter förhåller sig till nationell invandringspolitik och andra kontextuella faktorer.
Fabrics of Indianness
This book describes how Guyanese Hindus recreate Indian ethnic identity in contemporary Guyana and examines how Hindu traditions have been transformed in this multi-religious and multi-ethnic society. By illustrating the exchange and consumption of clothing, the book demonstrates that the practices of wearing and gifting clothes materialize and visualize relationships. The significant outward migration of Guyanese to North America has resulted in substantial international gift exchange and transnational rituals. Applying the concept of translocality, this book demonstrates that different localities continue to influence transnational networks and socio-cultural practices. It provides a study of migration that emphasizes various aspects of material and visual closeness, conceptualizing the notion of touch.
Young Migrants
This collection is the first to examine the life experiences of young adult immigrants in Europe, as transmitted by the young adults themselves, and together with the analytical framework, seeks to uncover mechanisms at work in these individuals' lives.
