Description: |
"Earlier versions of chapters in this volume were presented at the International Workshop on Transnational Labour Migration, Remittances and the Changing Family in Asia, 27-28 July 2010, Singapore"--Acknowledgements. |
Synopsis: |
The contributors investigate the inter-relationships between migrant remittances and the family in Asia. They argue that, in the context of Asian transnational labour migration where remittances tend to become a primary currency of care, the making or breaking of the family unit is mainly contingent on how individuals handle remittance processes. |
