This book explores how around the world, women's increased presence
in the labor force has reorganized the division of labor in
households, affecting different regions depending on their
cultures, economies, and politics; as well as the nature and size
of their welfare states and the gendering of employment
opportunities. As one result, the authors find, women are
increasingly migrating from the global south to become care workers
in the global north. This volume focuses on changing patterns of
family and gender relations, migration, and care work in the
countries surrounding the Pacific Rim-a global epicenter of
transnational care migration. Using a multi-scalar approach that
addresses micro, meso, and macro levels, chapters examine three
domains: care provisioning, the supply of and demand for care work,
and the shaping and framing of care. The analysis reveals that
multiple forms of global inequalities are now playing out in the
most intimate of spaces.
