Based on a two-dimensional model of ethnic identity, the book asks about the role of social status for migrants\u2019 identification with their origin group and the majority population. It focuses on intergenerational differences, migrant visibility, status mismatch, and exposure in the receiving country. Results reveal forms of ethnic identity beyond the classical assumption of mutual exclusiveness, which suggests that minority identity primarily relates to lower status positions and majority identity to higher status positions.The book thus contributes to the important discussion about migrant assimilation and alternative forms of incorporation.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The interplay of migrants\u2019 minority and majority identity is an important indicator for social climate, interethnic dialogue and migrant well-being. However, ethnic identity is often studied one-dimensionally, either focussing on minority or majority identity. Migrants\u2019 social status takes a crucial role in conveying such a one-dimensional perspective. Status is often expected to promote mutual exclusiveness of identities, i.e. relating negatively to minority identity and positively to majority identity. But empirical evidence suggests that across and within migrant generations, the relationship between status and ethnic identity is more complex. This book explores possible conditions that contribute to this increased complexity. It takes a bidimensional and intergenerational perspective on ethnic identity, aiming to improve our understanding of how it relates to status. Starting from a general theoretical model, status and ethnic identity are studied with respect to migrant visibility, status mismatch and exposure time. Analysing German survey data of 25 to 65 year old first- and second-generation migrants (N = 2,094), the book reveals that status is not necessarily associated with assimilated identity but positively related to majority identity in both generations. The findings further indicate support for the so-called \u201cintegration paradox\u201d: High-status migrants whose migration background is more visible and migrants with high education and comparably low job positions (status mismatch) show weaker majority identity than non-mismatched and less visible high-status migrants. Also, visible high-status and mismatched-status migrants show weaker minority identity. Compared to status, however, the duration of living in the receiving society is more important for ethnic identity. Overall, the results indicate an assimilation trend that tends to be faster for higher-status migrants in the first, but not the second generation. Nevertheless, there are signs of longer-term status effects, particularly regarding migrants with comparably weak ethnic identity. Importantly, this migrant group distributes across status levels, encouraging further research.<\/p>\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/shop.budrich.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/9783847425755_inhaltsverzeichnis_leseprobe.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Table of contents + reading sample<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>The author:<\/strong><br \/>\n<b>Andreas Genoni <\/b>is a researcher in the Migration and Mobility Research Unit at the Federal Institute for Population Research, Wiesbaden, Germany.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Download for free: <a href=\"https:\/\/shop.budrich.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/2575-genoni.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">publicity leaflet<\/a> (pdf)<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>The target group:<\/strong><br \/>\nLecturers and researchers in migration research, sociology, political science; practice of policy consulting<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Migrants\u2019 minority and majority identity are controversial political topics, which disclose challenges of integration and social cohesion.
