Abstract

This article is a case study that uses the notion of cosmopolitanism as an analytical tool to explore the life experiences and cultural identities of three children of Chinese migrants living in Spain. Based on life narrative interviews, the article demonstrates that cosmopolitan outlooks and practices emerge in the lives of the participants as a multilayered mechanism that involves, on the one hand, circumstances and conditions such as educational and socioeconomic background, and on the other, a creative strategy aimed at subverting power dynamics and asserting one’s place within society. It is in this regard that the cosmopolitanism of children of Chinese migrants in Spain can be seen as both given and created.
