Over the last decade or so, a new trend of global remittances has emerged within the international development community. Government and private sector actors have become interested in migration and remittances and their potential for poverty reduction and development, and have started to devise institutions and policies to harness this potential. This volume examines the emergence of the global remittances trend (GRT) against the backdrop of a number of ongoing global transformations. It explores the conceptual and institutional apparatus that constitute the GRT assesses the implications beyond the intended outcome of promoting development and reducing poverty. With an in-depth case study on Mexico and locating the migration-development nexus within its wider development context, the author demonstrates that the GRT is instrumental in spreading and deepening neo-liberal governmentality in a deeply gendered way. This innovative book will be of great interest to students and scholars of political science, international relations, sociology, development studies, economics, gender studies and Latin American Studies.
