About Growing Up in Transit
Anthropologist Danau Tanu spent years inside international schools to study how young people construct identity in globally mobile, multicultural environments. Growing Up in Transit challenges the dominant narrative that TCKs form a homogenous group, showing instead how race, nationality, gender, and class shape vastly different TCK experiences. Based on rich fieldwork, this book is an important resource for educators, parents, and policymakers at international schools and within expatriate communities.
