“…For these young people, the task of constructing a meaningful and functional identity may be challenging, given the many personal and social identities to navigate in the context of dramatic social change (Brittian, Lewin, & Norris, 2013;Norris et al, 2008;Yoder, 2000). They must also construct an identity that acknowledges other aspects of their identity regarding ethnicity, language, and culture (e.g., Adams & van de Vijver, 2017). As well, identity formation for Black South African youth must involve a pathway of belonging, worth, and hope for the future.…”

“…An additional avenue for future lines of research would focus on furthering our understanding of how ethnic identity informs intergroup relations, which is a growing area of interest in South Africa (e.g., Finchilescu & Tredoux, 2010;Shutts, Kinzler, Katz, Tredoux, & Spelke, 2011). Finally, future studies should continue to explore how youth from different ethnic and racial groups in South Africa and other transitioning societies are integrating and negotiating multiple aspects of their identity, including ethnic identity, within dynamic social change and transition (e.g., Adams & van de Vijver, 2017;Dimitrova et al, 2017).…”

“…Det finder vi blandt andet hos Byron G. Adams og Fons J.R. van de Vijver (Adams & Van de Vijver 2017). Når unge i Afrika møder skolesystemet sker det ved, at de fra deres egen sociale identitet, som blandt andet bygger på et etnisk, køns-og socioøkonomisk forhold, møder skolens kultur gennem et akkultureringsforløb, hvor der sker en forandring af den unges personlige og sociale identitet.…”

“…Det er både en eksamensorienteret kultur, en staerk hierarkisk styring af curriculum, en meget boglig kultur og ikke mindst en høj grad af envejskommunikation, hvor laerer-og laerebogsmaterialet er styrende. Lokale individuelle vaerdier, attituder, mål og forventninger kombineret med sociale roller og interpersonelle vaerdier, som igen formes af kulturelle, religiøse, etniske og sproglige aspekter støder ofte sammen med specielt Vestlige identiteter og kulturforståelser (Adams & Van de Vijver 2017).…”
