RACE, EDUCATION, AND CITIZENSHIP Mobile Malaysians, British Colonial Legacies and a Culture of Migration

Sin Yee Koh

Migration, Diasporas and Citizenship Series Editors Robin Cohen Department of International Development University of Oxford Oxford, United Kingdom Zig Layton-Henry Dept of Politics & International Studies University of Warwick Kenilworth, United Kingdom

Editorial Board: Rainer Baubock, European University Institute, Italy; James F. Hollifield, Southern Methodist University, USA; Daniele Joly, University of Warwick, UK; Jan Rath, University of Amsterdam, The Netherlands. The Migration, Diasporas and Citizenship series covers three important aspects of the migration process: firstly, the determinants, dynamics and characteristics of international migration. Secondly, the continuing attachment of many contemporary migrants to their places of origin, signified by the word ‘diaspora’, and thirdly the attempt, by contrast, to belong and gain acceptance in places of settlement, signified by the word ‘citizenship’. The series publishes work that shows engagement with and a lively appreciation of the wider social and political issues that are influenced by international migration. This series develops from our Migraton, Minorities and Citizenship series, which published leading figures in the field including Steven Vertovec, Daniele Joly, Adrian Favell, John Rex, Ewa Morawska and Jan Rath.
