Description

Explore the complex relationship between labor, gender, and migration in this academic volume from Springer. This book examines how the increased presence of women in the global labor force has reorganized household divisions of labor. It analyzes how these changes vary across different regions based on specific cultures, economies, and political structures. Readers will gain insight into how the nature and size of welfare states and the gendering of employment opportunities affect global movements. A major focus of this research is the trend of women migrating from the global south to serve as care workers in the global north. By looking at the countries surrounding the Pacific Rim, this volume provides a multi-scalar approach to understanding changing patterns in family relations, migration trends, and the evolving landscape of care work.
