ABSTRACT
The Chinese immigrant population in Spain has grown rapidly over the past three decades and continues to increase, although the current economic crisis has resulted in a significant decline in overall migration flows. The magnitude and pace of immigrant population increase in Spain over the past three decades have given rise to a substantial body of national research. The parent-school relationship was almost nonexistent. Schools as institutions with a significant role in the socialization of all students must surely be alert to and combat any discrimination that may occur during the schooling process. The role of teachers is fundamental in transforming schools into non-violent spaces, spaces in which socializing and learning is based on respect, solidarity, and recognition of and respect for cultural difference as a value in itself. Understanding the relationships between globalization, transcultural migration, citizenship, and their effects on the education of Chinese-heritage students in Spain is surely important.
