What happens when the parents of migrants age and need care in
mobile and aging societies? Ethnomorality of Care acts as a window
in sharing how physical distance challenges family-centered elderly
care by juxtaposing transnational families with non-migrant
families. A novel approach that explores intentions and moral
beliefs concerning elderly care alongside practical care
arrangements, Ethnomorality of Care presents a concept of care
which recognizes how various factors shape the experience of care,
including: national, regional, and local contexts, economic
inequalities, gender, care and migration regimes. Based on the
findings of a multi-sited research carried out between 2014 and
2017 in Poland and the UK, this perceptive volume also seeks to
demonstrate how researchers and practitioners can use ethnomorality
of care approach to examine non-migrant families and other types of
care. Helping readers to better understand the lived experience of
care receivers and givers beyond kinship care, Ethnomorality of
Care will appeal to graduate students, researchers, policy makers
and care practitioners interested in fields such as migration
studies, transnational studies and social and cultural gerontology.
