This comprehensive Handbook explores the fundamental concepts
surrounding the ageing-migration nexus. It is indispensable
reading, presenting interdisciplinary research to investigate the
unique experiences of older migrants, migrant eldercare workers and
older people left behind. Illustrating the various contemporary
topics of study used to explore the connections between migration
and ageing, the Handbook discusses how the research interest
surrounding this interrelation has developed. Chapters explore two
central factors that have influenced the ageing-migration nexus,
namely population ageing and the globalization of international
migration. It aptly draws attention to conclusions drawn from
already completed research ventures, before considering what
research still needs to be conducted. This innovative Handbook will
be an ideal resource for researchers and practitioners aiming to
familiarize themselves with the field. It will also be beneficial
for more experienced researchers studying topics such as migration,
welfare states and social gerontology, as well as academics looking
to become more informed on the connections between migration and
ageing.
