Why is it important?
The book explores activities beyond care and suggests that the failure of social reproduction is not only an outcome but also a driver of global migration among different categories of migrants.
Perspectives
Social reproduction captures both the material necessities and emotional and social relationships that enable or do not to sustain our lives. It illuminates many of the issues relating to gendered migrations and the differences encountered by different categories of migrants.
