This book focuses on the emerging global old age care industry
developing as a response to tackle the "old age care crisis" in
richer countries. In this global industry, multiple actors are
involved in recruiting, skilling and placing migrant care workers
in different spheres of the receiving country's old age care
system. This book delves into the analysis of these actors and the
multiple levels influencing their activities. Accordingly, it
examines the significance of old age care regimes and policies as
well as intermediaries and promoters for initiating, shaping and
perpetuating old age care arrangements based on migrant labor and
the relationships within them. Particular emphasis is placed on the
risks and implications of these arrangements for the well-being and
the social protection of the different actors involved. The book
analyzes these processes and structures from a global perspective
including different countries and regions of the world.
