Description

Explore the complex dynamics of migration and marriage in this academic study from the Routledge Edinburgh South Asian Studies Series. Since the 1960s, marriage has become the primary way people move between Pakistan and the UK following restrictions on commonwealth labour immigration. This book examines how these transnational unions shape social fields, often involving marriages between cousins or more distant relatives. Based on direct research conducted in both Britain and Pakistan, the text provides a detailed look at the emotional motivations and the actual content of these unions. It moves beyond simple statistics to offer a rounded portrayal of the human experience. Readers will gain insight into the lives of families and individuals navigating these connections, including the often neglected experiences of migrants. This work is an essential resource for those studying sociology, anthropology, and South Asian studies.
