This book puts forward a new model of acculturation combining psychological, sociolinguistic
and identity theories to study Turkish immigrants across the globe. The authors argue
that such a multidisciplinary erspective is very important in understanding acculturation
processes in migrants, particularly for pivotal aspects such as language and identity.
Studying one group or several groups within a country is the most common methodological
approach in acculturation studies. The authors argue on the basis of their extensive
ethnographic work that focusing on one immigrant ethnic group across countries instead
provides deeper insights into interactive acculturation orientations of both the receiving
societies and immigrant groups. They therefore synthesize findings from their work
on Turkish immigrants in Australia and several countries in Europe. Moreover, they
include extensive accounts of acculturation across several generations of Turkish
migrants, thereby giving readers insights into the long-term acculturation process.
The book critically discusses language maintenance and shift, child-rearing practices
and socialization beliefs, and educational achievement in Turkish immigrants, and
uses a mixed-methods approach. It is meant for researchers and policy makers interested
in acculturation and the role of the acculturation context. In a nutshell, the book
stresses the dynamic and ever-evolving nature of linguistic habits and cultural integration
tendencies and convinces the reader about the complexity of the background factors
that play a role in shaping the behaviour of immigrant minorities. Anyone who reads
the book will be equipped with the skills to critically assess research on immigrant
language maintenance
