Abstract
The paper focuses on the construction of identities of the second generation of Muslims in the Czech Republic. This generation grew up primarily in the context of the Czech environment, but their socialization took place in the context of a Muslim family.
Second-generation Muslims, therefore, move between multiple cultural frameworks, transnational fields, and find themselves in the space between (Levitt 2009). They negotiate their identity situationally and must come to terms with their relationship to their parents' country of origin, ethnicity, and national identity.
Therefore, I would like to use the accounts of second-generation Muslims to show how these young people with migration experience deal with ethnicity when they report on their otherness, and what strategies they employ when negotiating key social identities. This is data that I generated through semi-structured interviews.
