- Information
Description
This book explores the differences for participants when the wives migrate for reproductive labor in the United States.
This book also adds a much needed non-working class dimension to the impact of migration on women and marital relations, particularly in the Pacific Rim: where husbands remain in Taiwan, the country of origin, and send remittances to support their wives and children in the United States, the receiving country.
This book thus contributes to theorizing the class and gender dimensions of international migration, and provides comparative data for the study of transnational migration.
It also sheds light on understanding the familial aspect of the many interactions across the Pacific Rim, an aspect that remains understudied.
