Immigration and Social Cohesion in the Republic of Ireland
Author: Bryan Fanning
Publisher: Manchester University Press
ISBN: 1847795048
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 335
Book Description
In the last decade Ireland’s immigrant population grew to more than one in ten. Now in the midst of an economic crisis the integration of immigrants has become a topical issue. Drawing extensively on demographic data and research on immigrant lives, immigrant participation in Irish politics and the experiences of immigrants living in deprived communities, this book offers a thorough study of the immigrant experience in Ireland today. Well-researched chapters and case studies examine the effects of immigration on social cohesion, the role of social policy, the nature and extent of segregation in education, racism and discrimination in the labour market, and the barriers faced by immigrants seeking Irish citizenship. This book will be essential reading for students and scholars of immigration in Ireland and will appeal more broadly to those studying politics, sociology, geography and social policy.

International Perspectives on Teacher Well-Being and Diversity
Author: Timothy R. N. Murphy
Publisher: Springer Nature
ISBN: 981161699X
Category : Education
Languages : en
Pages : 218
Book Description
This book explores teacher well-being in light of the increasingly ethnically diverse profiles of schools and classrooms, focusing on socially and linguistically diverse teaching contexts. It draws attention to the socio-economic disadvantages that can often be characteristic of ethnically diverse classrooms, prior to examining and reviewing the interconnections between teacher well-being and the implementation of pedagogical processes in the classroom teaching and learning context. Teachers and academics alike report on and address the well-being-related needs of practising teachers. This book contributes to the emerging field of literature on teacher well-being and offers international perspectives on lessons learnt in socially diverse and multilingual teaching contexts. Accordingly, it offers a valuable resource for teacher educators, researchers, pre-service and in-service teachers, and policymakers.

The Palgrave Handbook of Race and Ethnic Inequalities in Education
Author: Peter A.J. Stevens
Publisher: Springer
ISBN: 3319947249
Category : Education
Languages : en
Pages : 1318
Book Description
This authoritative, state-of-the-art reference work builds on its first edition to provide a cutting-edge systematic review of the relationship between race/ethnicity and educational inequality. Studying 25 different national contexts drawn from every inhabited continent on earth and building upon material from the earlier edition, the work analyses educational policies, practices and research on minority students, immigrants and refugees. The editors and contributors explore principal research traditions from countries as diverse as Argentina, China, Norway and South Africa, examining the factors promoting social cohesion as well as considerations regarding the use of international test score data. Seamlessly integrating findings of national reviews, the editors and contributors analyse how national contexts of race/ethnic relations shape the character and content of educational inequalities, and deftly map out new directions for future research in the area. Global in its perspective and definitive in content, this one-stop volume will be an indispensable reference resource for a wide range of academics, students and researchers in the fields of education, sociology, race and ethnicity studies and social policy.

"Sharks and Sprats"
Author: Beata Sokolowska
Publisher: Cambridge Scholars Publishing
ISBN: 1443896705
Category : Education
Languages : en
Pages : 177
Book Description
This book is based on reflexivity and offers a snapshot of migration from Poland to Ireland with a special focus on transnational migratory practices. It evidences how young people articulate and negotiate their identities and pathways through peer hierarchies during their second culture acquisition. This book has two purposes. The first is to give a voice to a particular group of immigrants – namely, Polish immigrant teenage children in Ireland. By exploring issues of children as social actors, this book thereby moves children from passive research objects to real and active participants of the contemporary transnational migration. The second is to highlight the importance of intercultural dialogue and the need for the practical endorsement of a truly inclusive intercultural education. The structure of this book reflects the approach of studying acculturation within its dimensionality and domain specificity, using diverse research techniques. It not only widens our knowledge of the migratory perspectives of youth, highlighting the educational needs of immigrant children, but also addresses many gaps in our understanding of migratory teenagers’ modus operandi in adapting to cultural diversity. By adopting this perspective, the book contributes to a growing body of educational and sociological literature by making important inroads into our understanding of the acculturation process, predominantly with regard to our perception of the acculturation strategies, attitudes, and outcomes in the context of the interculturalism of youth.

Education and the Law
Author: Dympna Glendenning
Publisher: Bloomsbury Publishing
ISBN: 1526514400
Category : Law
Languages : en
Pages : 946
Book Description
Legal issues encroach into almost every aspect of modern day education in Ireland. This practical book examines these legal issues surrounding teaching and education, such as tortuous liability for injuries to teachers and students, the employment of teachers, school discipline, bullying, freedom of information, and the State's responsibility for educating children with special educational needs. Membership of the European Union has also resulted in many changes arising from the principles of free movement, non-discrimination and the common vocational training policy. These developments, as well as the key legislation (including the Education Act 1998, the Education (Welfare) Act 2000, the Education for Persons with Special Educational Needs Act 2004 and the Disability Act 2005) are examined in detail. Education and the Law also takes an historical look at the legal aspects of the education system in Ireland, and it traces the distinctive development of the Irish education system but it also looks at the future direction of education in Ireland and at the likely impact of equality law, human rights law and membership of the enlarged European Community on Ireland's largely denominational education system.
