Despite the cosmopolitan rhetoric, hierarchies of race, culture and class shape popularity, friendships and romance on campus. By going back to high school for a year, Tanu befriended transnational youth, often called \"Third Culture Kids\", to present their struggles with identity, belonging and internalized racism in their own words. The result is the first engaging, anthropological critique of the way Western-style cosmopolitanism is institutionalized as cultural capital to reproduce global socio-cultural inequalities.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eDanau Tanu\u003c\/strong\u003e is a Visiting Research Fellow at the Graduate School of Asia-Pacific Studies, Waseda University and an Honorary Research Fellow at the School of Social Sciences, The University of Western Australia.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 296\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.62 x 9 x 6 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e December 07, 2020\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44839777468518,"sku":"9781789207958","price":39.71,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0599\/7255\/0758\/files\/UHJzRFZRcWQwTEw2U095ZXhsY2VDZz09.webp?v=1772513418","url":"https:\/\/infinitylightwa.com\/products\/growing-up-in-transit-the-politics-of-belonging-at-an-international-school-paperback","provider":"Infinity Light","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
