The complexity of ethnicity, socio-economic context, gender, race and racism provide the backdrop for discussions around contested areas such as parental authority and discipline, attitudes and views about education, and acculturation and racial and ethnic socialisation.
Parenting in Multi-racial Britain presents the findings from an empirical study into the views and experiences of a non-clinical group of ‘ordinary’ parents in diverse ethnic communities in England and provides a unique insight for the range of professionals working with diverse families.
