Informationen zum Autor Philipp Schnell is a Post-Doctoral researcher at the Austrian Academy of Sciences and affiliated researcher at the Swiss Forum for Migration and Population Studies. Klappentext This volume investigates educational inequalities among children of Turkish immigrants in Austria, France, and Sweden. One of the largest immigrant groups in these countries, Turks nonetheless face discrimination and limited opportunities, and this study shows how those problems play out in education. One of its key findings is that systems that provide more favorable institutional arrangements lead to greater economic mobility in the second generation. -Philipp Schnell is a Post-Doctoral researcher at the Austrian Academy of Sciences and affiliated researcher at the Swiss Forum for Migration and Population Studies.
