Identity struggles of second generation immigrants

This paper attempts to examine whether the acculturation process raises issues of identity struggles among second generation immigrants in Greece and how these struggles are experienced. The purpose of this research is to see how acculturation is experienced by the second generation immigrants and the impact of this process on cultural identity issues. Eight second generation immigrants aged between 18 to 30 years old from Albania, Romania, Nigeria and Pakistan were interviewed. The findings showed that all participants in the survey have experienced an identity struggle. All of them desire to become members of the society in which they were born and raised. Moreover they experienced a sense of invisibility in the State’s and broader society’s eyes, while treated as immigrants, and not as equal members as the Greek citizens.
