Migrant Citizenship from Below explores the dynamic local and
transnational lives of Filipina and Filipino migrant domestic
workers living in Schoenberg, Germany. Shinozaki examines their
irregular migrant citizenship status from 'above', which is
produced by complex interactions between Germany's welfare, care,
and migration regimes and the Philippines' gendered politics of
overseas employment. Despite the predominant representation of
these workers as invisible, these spatially immobile migrants
maintain sustained transnational engagements through parenting and
religious practices. Shinozaki studies the reverse-gendered process
of international reproductive labor migration, in which women
traveled first and were later joined by men. Despite their
structural vulnerability, participant observations and biographical
interviews with the migrants demonstrate that they enact and
negotiate migrant citizenship in the workplace, transnational
households, religious practices and through accessing health
provisions.
