Beschreibung:
Claire Maxwell is a professor at sociology at the University of Copenhagen, Denmark. Her research has focused on the ways the internationalisation of education has shaped education systems and how elite forms of provision are being developed and embedded around the world. A second focus has been on the lives of globally mobile professionals and their families, examining school choice, identities and family practices.
Nurturing Mobilities employs new empirical material and an innovative theoretical framing to bring new clarity to why families travel today - and what happens when they do. Vitally, it examines the two biggest contemporary issues in global mobility: COVID-19, and climate change.
