Description

Explore the complex lives of Asian migrant women through this academic collection from Routledge. This book examines how embodied ritual performance helps women establish agency and change their sense of self. It focuses on transnational women from South and South East Asia who move to Asia, Europe, and the Middle East to work as carers and maids. As a timely resource for students and scholars, the text looks at how Christian, Muslim, and Buddhist migrants re-imagine themselves in moral and ethical terms while living in the diaspora. By looking past common stereotypes, this work provides a deep look into how these women navigate their new environments and recreate their identities through religious and social practices. This volume is essential for those studying the anthropology of Christianity and Islam, as well as migration studies and gender roles in a globalized world.
