Reviews

“These are insightful analyses of how the nexus of international migration and population ageing can impact individuals’ decision-making in retirement. They show us not only that privilege and precarity can coexist in the lives of international retirement migrants, but also that there is more to lifestyle migration than meets the eye."" Sandra Torres, Uppsala University ""This is a sensitive and beautifully written study of how precarity intersects with both decisions to migrate and experiences of relocation later in life. It is a must-read for scholars in the field."" Caroline Oliver, University College London
