Abstract [en]

The aim of this study was to investigate if children of immigrants and people with mixed backgrounds has experienced the state of mind called betweenship, and how it affects their identity development and their cultural- and group belonging. This study is based on five qualitative interviews and gives an insight into the study´s informants experiences of betweenship, but also how having parents with a migration background affects their actions and behavior in Swedish society. The study has concluded that participating informants in the study have experienced betweenship due to their skin- and hair color but also because of their names and their multicultural belonging. Further in the study also shows that the parents of the informants have influenced their actions in life and their cultural- and group belonging.
