The question of how the children of migrants compare to natives in destination countries has long occupied the research agenda of migration and integration scholars. But, while there are many studies that have explored this issue in the Global North, with special attention to South–North migrants, little is known about integration patterns of South–South migrants, that is, Southern migrants and their children residing in the Global South. This article addresses this concern by studying one of the key indicators of migrant integration—the educational achievement of the children of migrants—in one of the most popular migration corridors in the Global South—that of South Americans who emigrated to Argentina. Using census microdata from 2010, the article explores the educational attainment and educational reproduction of Bolivian-, Paraguayan-, Peruvian-, and Chilean-origin children in comparison with that of their native Argentine counterparts. The analysis distinguishes between 1.5 and second-generation children and focuses on young people between 6 and 21 years old who live with at least one parent. Two dimensions of educational attainment are explored: school attendance and educational level. The results show that the role of parental education tends to be weaker among migrant-origin groups. This has implications for the educational gap. In general, migrant-origin groups are advantaged over native Argentines among those with low-educated parents. Conversely, they present no differences or are disadvantaged among those with middle–high educated parents. This is observed for both 1.5 and second generations, with variations based on the outcome and national origin. Possible explanations are offered.

南半球国家的移民与教育：阿根廷教育系统中南美裔儿童的研究


移民子女与目的地国本地人相比如何的问题长期以来一直占据着移民和融合学者的研究议程。但是，尽管有许多研究探讨了北半球国家的这一问题，特别关注南北移民，但人们对南南移民（即南方移民及其居住在北半球国家的子女）的融合模式知之甚少。南。本文通过研究移民融入的关键指标之一——移民子女的教育成就——在全球南方最受欢迎的移民走廊之一——移民到阿根廷的南美人中，解决了这一问题。本文使用 2010 年人口普查微观数据，探讨了玻利维亚、巴拉圭、秘鲁和智利裔儿童与阿根廷本土儿童的受教育程度和教育再生产情况。该分析区分了 1.5 代儿童和二代儿童，重点关注与至少一位父母同住的 6 岁至 21 岁的年轻人。探讨了教育程度的两个维度：入学率和教育水平。结果显示，在流动人口群体中，父母教育的作用往往较弱。这对教育差距有影响。总体而言，在父母受教育程度较低的群体中，移民群体比阿根廷本土群体更具优势。相反，他们与父母受过中高等教育的人相比没有差异或处于不利地位。 1.5 代和第二代均观察到这一情况，并根据结果和国籍而有所不同。提供了可能的解释。
