Mobile Childhoods in Filipino Transnational Families cover

Mobile Childhoods in Filipino Transnational Families focuses on the lived experiences of '1.5-generation' migrants with similar 'roots' (the Philippines), traversing different 'routes' (receiving countries). By shedding light on the diversified paths of their migratory lives, it revisits the relationships between mobility, sociality and identity.

“This edited volume contributes to the recent trend of recognizing children as social actors, rendering them more visible in migration studies. ... Mobile Childhoods in Filipino Transnational Families is a good read for migration scholars and researchers interested in the study of children and youth.” (Fiona-Katharina Seiger, International Journal of Asian Studies, Vol. 14 (2), July, 2017)
