Familiers kosmopolitiske uddannelsesstrategier â Et spørgsmĂĽl om migration og investering i distinktiv kapital
Artiklen viser, at der er en nĂŚr sammenhĂŚng mellem social baggrund og gennemførelse af eliteuddannelse og ikke-eliteuddannelse blandt en gruppe af danske migranter med minimum fem ĂĽrs ophold i udlandet. Vi tilføjer en ny rekonversionsstrategi til Pierre Bourdieus batteri af strategier udfoldet i La Noblesse dâĂtat, en udvandrings-strategi med henblik pĂĽ erhvervelse af uddannelseskapital. IsĂŚr personer med veluddannede forĂŚldre har en forøget sandsynlighed for at erobre en universitetsuddannelse pĂĽ en eliteinstitution, navnlig i âzones of prestigeâ, det vil sige i England og USA, som relativt set har de største udbud af distinktive universitetsinstitutioner. En gruppe af migranter gennemfører en udenlandsk universitetsuddannelse pĂĽ ikke-elite institutioner, hvilket kan afspejle en form for kompensatorisk strategi, som udmøntes i social uddannelsesmobilitet. ForĂŚldrene til børn, der opnĂĽr en universitetsgrad fra udlandet, har desuden selv en betydelig kosmopolitisk erfaring. Endeligt finder vi markante kønsforskelle.

ENGELSK ABSTRACT:
Martin D. Munk, Mette Foged, and Andreas M. Mulvad: The Cosmopolitan Educational Strategies of Families. A Question of Migration and Investment in Distinctive Capital
This paper shows that there is a strong correlation between social origin and attaining non-ĂŠlite and especially ĂŠlite education abroad for a group of long-term emigrants from Denmark. We suggest acquisition of distinctive educational capital abroad as a new investment and reconversion strategy that supplements the portfolio of (national) strategies developed by Bourdieu in La Noblesse dâĂtat. In particular, people with highly educated parents have a greater tendency to obtain university education from an ĂŠlite institution abroad, especially in âzones of prestigeâ. Because England and the US have the greatest number of distinctive institutions of higher education, these countries are attracting the majority of Danes who emigrate for at least five years and obtain university education abroad. We suggest that the weaker selection into non-ĂŠlite institutions reflects a sort of compensational strategy which leads to upward social educational mobility. Parents of children who migrate and undertake university education abroad have often studied or worked abroad themselves, so the intergenerational transmission of cosmopolitan capital follows the same pattern as the intergenerational transmission of the educational level. Furthermore, we find strong gender differences for instance with respect to motivations for studying abroad and the relative importance of father and mother with regard to educational achievement of the child.

Single-laser 32.5 Tbit/s Nyquist WDM transmission
We demonstrate 32.5 Tbit/s 16QAM Nyquist WDM transmission over a total length
of 227 km of SMF-28 without optical dispersion compensation. A number of 325
optical carriers are derived from a single laser and encoded with
dual-polarization 16QAM data using sinc-shaped Nyquist pulses. As we use no
guard bands, the carriers have a spacing of 12.5 GHz equal to the Nyquist
bandwidth of the data. We achieve a high net spectral efficiency of 6.4
bit/s/Hz using a software-defined transmitter which generates the electrical
modulator drive signals in real-time.Comment: (c) 2012 Optical Society of America. One print or electronic copy may
