Lost Identity : The Migrant Experience

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Lost Identity: The Migrant Experience explores one of the most profound questions facing millions of people who leave their homeland: Who am I when everything around me changes Migration is more than crossing a geographical border. It can transform identity, family relationships, language, culture, career, belonging, and the meaning of home. From the excitement of a new beginning to the loneliness of separation, migrants often find themselves living between two worlds-carrying the memories of where they came from while building a future somewhere new.This book explores: - The emotional meaning of home and belonging- Why people make the difficult decision to leave their homeland- The challenges of crossing borders and starting again- Culture shock, language barriers, and adaptation- The experience of losing and rebuilding identity- Family separation and generational identity conflicts- Discrimination, exclusion, and the search for acceptance- Loneliness, resilience, success, and the hidden psychological cost of migration- Hybrid identities and living between cultures- The complex reality of returning home- How migrants can ultimately develop a broader sense of identity and belongingDrawing on international research, social perspectives, and illustrative migrant experiences, Lost Identity: The Migrant Experience presents migration neither simply as a story of loss nor as a story of success. Instead, it reveals the complexity of a journey that can involve sacrifice, uncertainty, resilience, transformation, and hope.At its heart, this book asks a powerful question: Does a migrant really lose their identity-or do they discover a new and expanded identity through the journey For migrants, families, educators, professionals, policymakers, and anyone interested in culture and human identity, this book offers a thoughtful exploration of what it means to leave one home while carrying another within you.You may cross a border in a day. But discovering who you have become can take a lifetime. Artikel-Nr. 9798193576365
