Through her comprehensive study, she explores the intricate tapestry of transnational mobility, unveiling the aspirations and realities that shape the lived experiences of middle-class young individuals traversing between Asia and the West in pursuit of work, education, and lifestyle opportunities. By employing a novel conceptual framework called 'chronomobilities,' which examines the interplay of time-regimes and time-logics, Robertson unveils the profound complexities that accompany migratory pathways, revealing how they transcend the mere act of leaving one country for another. She demonstrates how these pathways intricately intertwine with the temporalities of everyday life, impacting various aspects such as career trajectories, intimate relationships, and overall sense of time. Drawing upon extensive ethnographic material, Robertson intricately weaves together a rich tapestry that deepens our understanding of the multifaceted relationship between migration and time. This insightful work not only sheds light on the experiences of these young migrants but also contributes to our broader understanding of the intricate dynamics that shape our globalized world.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\\n                            \u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 488g\\n                            \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 162 x 240 x 20 (mm)\\n                            \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9781529211511\\n                            \\n                          \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"ShanthiRobertson","offers":[{"title":"Hardback","offer_id":44094692589818,"sku":"9781529211511","price":74.97,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/58661f3ceff9a0df9017a19e92a1658b.jpg?v=1621498315","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/temporality-in-mobile-lives-contemporary-asia-australia-migration-and-everyday-time","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
