The unprecedented pace of urbanization and massive internal migration has brought about profound transformations across nearly every aspect of society. The impact on children of migrant families has been particularly significant. Due to the hukou system and associated policies, China's internal migrants encounter significant barriers to integration into urban areas. Moreover, as this book demonstrates, these policies have also caused unprecedented family breakdowns on a scale unseen before. Over 100 million children grow up in unstable families, and the vast majority have endured prolonged separations from their parents during the migratory upheaval.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis book offers an updated examination of this massive and painful process unfolding at various geographical scales. The chapters revolve around the central concept of family togetherness, or the lack thereof. The book employs a range of measures, dissects, and analyzes the impacts of migration on children, and proposes policies to address critical problems from diverse disciplinary perspectives, employing different methodologies. The challenges faced by the children of migrants remain substantial, and they are poised to escalate into a looming crisis that has the potential to harm an entire generation with far-reaching consequences.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe chapters in this book were originally published in Eurasian Geography and Economics.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 454g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 246 x 174 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9780367509354\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Shulph Ink","offers":[{"title":"Paperback \/ softback","offer_id":44103692026106,"sku":"9780367509354","price":42.83,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/1646138482593_book.jpg?v=1646907704","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/children-of-migrants-in-china-9780367509354","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
