She collected ethnographic research over a four-year period in Brisbane, Australia, to understand the dynamics of belonging and how young people define themselves and their sense of social place in the context of living with diversity, specifically their racialized and ethnic self-representations and how they are emphasized and denied as young people seek belonging within friendship groups, through wider networks, and against the background of Australian multiculturalism. She discusses Australian immigration policy and multiculturalism; the theoretical framework of th and the relevant literature on youth and identity; young people's identity work in multicultural contexts through their everyday practices of making and describing their social relationships, including friendships and romantic relationships; how young people perform identity and adapt cultural resources, concepts, and associations for cultivating ethnic and racial affiliations and engaging with multiculturalism; their identity practices within the political context as they engage with issues of race and citizenship; and implications for understanding identity formation among transnational diasporas and refugee youth.
