By focusing on the increasing number of Southeast Asians moving into the middle class, this ethnographic study of the everyday lived experience of Thai migrant women in Hong Kong challenges traditional narratives of victimized migrants and domestic workers. It advances a new understanding of transnational migration and mobility at the intersections of gender, ethnicity, class, generation, and religion. This book highlights the influence of transnationalism and multiculturalism on migrant women's meaning-making and underscores the importance of diversity within a migrant population, particularly the need to maintain an intersectional perspective to comprehend the broader phenomenon of contemporary middle-class and professional migration within Southeast Asia.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 210 x 148 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9783031159770\u003cbr\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eEdition number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1st ed. 2022\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Herbary Cheung","offers":[{"title":"Paperback \/ softback","offer_id":45797209473274,"sku":"9783031159770","price":91.62,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/files\/1714127565216_book.jpg?v=1714209533","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/engendering-migration-journey-identity-ethnicity-and-gender-of-thai-migrant-women-in-hong-kong-9783031159770","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
