The authors show how nursery children of different ethnicities interact in beginning their identity journeys in a culture of both inequality, and evolving ethnic relationships and patterns of harmony, in Britain’s developing multicultural society. In looking at self-concept development in secondary school children through the lens of various kinds of child maltreatment, Alice Sawyerr and Christopher Bagley argue that ethnic minority children are psychological survivors, and African-Caribbean girls especially are making strong identity steps—it is the “poor whites” who will make up the precariat, the reserve army of labour, who are left behind in structures of inequality UR - http://dx.doi.org/10.1007/978-94-6351-080-6 ER -
