This book explores the struggles that immigrant women experience
when communicating with their transnational families through
information and communication technologies (ICTs). Sondra Cuban
recounts the fascinating stories of sixty female immigrants living
in Washington state, and explores how gender, social class,
nationality, and language influence their ICT usage. She addresses
the emotional labor involved in interacting with the families they
left behind as well as their ingenious communication systems which
challenge the existing research surrounding this unique phenomenon.
Early chapters of this book detail the current arguments and
theories of transnational family communication in order to propose
a new model thereof. Throughout, larger questions of global
equality are addressed.
