In this article, I investigate the roles of grandparents for second‐generation immigrants who live with their parents in a different country from their grandparents. I draw on in‐depth interviews with second‐generation Vietnamese immigrants living in the Czech Republic, where they are very often raised by Czech caregivers. The carers and the children are joined through the process of caregiving and become grandmothers and grandchildren to each other. The analysis focuses on how the interviewees make sense of, interpret, and understand their roles as grandchildren vis‐à‐vis their Czech and Vietnamese grandmothers. It shows how, after migration, the kinship ties are performed, negotiated, and reproduced on a micro level of everyday life, with tasks of caring, homeland visits, and a transnational/face‐to‐face maintenance of intimacy. The article concludes that grandparents play an important role in the grandchildren's sense of belonging both to their family kin and to the homeland.

祖父母,亲属关系和移民后的归属:第二代孙辈的观点

在本文中,我研究了祖父母在与父母和祖父母居住在不同国家中的第二代移民中的作用。我对居住在捷克共和国的第二代越南移民进行了深入采访,他们经常由捷克看护人抚养。照顾者和孩子们通过照料的过程而团结在一起,成为彼此的祖母和孙子。该分析着重于受访者相对于捷克和越南祖母如何理解,解释和理解他们作为孙子的角色。它显示了在迁移之后,亲属关系是如何在日常生活的微观层面上执行,协商和重现的,其任务是关怀,家园探视和跨国/面对面的保持亲密关系。
