内容简介
······
Public discourse on Asian parenting tends to fixate on ethnic culture as a static value set, disguising the fluidity and diversity of Chinese parenting. Such stereotypes also fail to account for the challenges of raising children in a rapidly modernizing world, full of globalizing values. In Raising Global Families, Pei-Chia Lan examines how ethnic Chinese parents in Taiwan and the United States negotiate cultural differences and class inequality to raise children in the contexts of globalization and immigration. She draws on a uniquely comparative, multisited research model with four groups of parents: middle-class and working-class parents in Taiwan, and middle-class and working-class Chinese immigrants in the Boston area. Despite sharing a similar ethnic cultural background, these parents develop class-specific, context-sensitive strategies for arranging their children's education, care, and discipline, and for coping with uncertainties provoked by their changing surroundings. Lan's cross-Pacific comparison demonstrates that class inequality permeates the fabric of family life, even as it takes shape in different ways across national contexts.

教養子女的目標及策略，取決於父母對“競爭力”的理解（which 受他們的成長經歷和生活經驗影響，which is further determined by 父母所在的階級），也取決於父母擁有的金錢與時間資源。
全球化是大背景。
全球化導致的充滿不確定的階級流動導致了中產階級父母的焦慮。
階級不平等，使得中產階級的教養方式成為主流，文化與制度共謀，剝奪藍領階級作為父母的合法性。
父與母，又各自在社…
《跨国灰姑娘》的英文版2000年写完，2011年中文版出版；Raising Global Families的调研是2010-2013年做的，英文成书是在2018年。一项研究从开始进行到成果出版，周期可以是很长的，但个中洞见却不会因为时间而褪色…..
一个蛮棒的点 working class family也不是在放任小孩自由成长 只是他们not as articulate as middle class family
蓝佩嘉做working class和transnational还是驾轻就熟，不过不是很懂在说“Asian”的时候，这个词的范畴是什么，就好像其实很想知道biracial kids (an example will be Eileen Gu)的华裔妈妈/爸爸是如何negotiate这种parenting上的认知差异的。嗯这本书给我最大的感想是，所有想生小孩的年轻人们都应该来读读本书啊养小孩不是闹着玩…
