Families Caring Across Borders: Migration, Ageing and Transnational Care Giving


Overview

This book presents an ethnographic account of the transnational care giving experiences and practices of migrants and refugees who live in Australia, and their parents in Europe, the Middle East, Asia and New Zealand. This timely work contributes rich detailed knowledge of how people respond to a world characterized by unprecedented mobility (both voluntary and forced), globalized job markets and an ageing population, as increasing numbers of families find themselves spread across the globe and caring for their elderly parents from a distance.
