Return and Reintegration Experiences of Senegalese Female Migrants
This study investigates the under‐explored domains of intra‐African return and reintegration of female returnees. Drawing on qualitative data from 23 semi‐structured interviews with female returnees in Senegal in 2023, the research reveals how female migrants negotiate their reintegration with hegemonic norms of femininity and masculinity and how they position themselves in their families and communities after return. It elucidates how hegemonic …
Overcoming interruptions in educational trajectories: Youth in Ghana with international migrant parents
Literature on the effects of parental migration on the education of children who stay at origin, what we call 'stayer' youth, mainly focuses on educational outcomes without looking at the process leading to such outcomes. This article addresses this gap by showing how the educational trajectories of stayer youth unfold. Stayer youth may encounter a range of obstacles and interruptions to their education when their parents move overseas, and we ex…
Aspiring While Waiting: Temporality and Pacing of Ghanaian Stayer Youth’s Migration Aspirations
Many youth in Global South countries, whose parents have migrated abroad while they have stayed, i.e., “stayer youth,” also aspire to migrate. While the current literature depicts stayer youth as “waiting” to emigrate, connoting passivity, recent critical youth studies suggest the importance of centring young people’s agency when focusing on their aspirations and experiences. This article investigates how stayer youth in Ghana “pace” their migrat…
Transnational youth mobility: New Categories for Migrant Youth Research
Large-scale research on migrant youth categorises youth along two lines: ethnicity and generation. Yet insights from smaller-scale qualitative studies indicate that it is important to experiment with categories based on mobility. While these studies have shown that young people's mobility affects their identities, educational resilience, sense of belonging and sense of self, findings have not led to new thinking about categories used in large-sca…
African transnational families: Cross‐country and gendered comparisons
Studies indicated differences between transnational family life for migrant mothers and fathers and that the effects on their “left‐behind” children differ according to who migrates. Yet little is known about why these differences exist. This paper aims to fill this gap by comparing transnational and nontransnational African families with parents living in Europe to understand their different family structures. We analyse three datasets with info…
Do Transnational Child-Raising Arrangements Affect Job Outcomes of Migrant Parents? Comparing Angolan Parents in Transnational and NonTransnational Families in the Netherlands
Transnational family literature has established that parent-child separations affect negatively on the emotional well-being of migrant parents. Less attention has been paid to other effects separation can have on these parents' lives. Building on insights from transnational family studies and organizational psychology, this article explores the potential link between transnational family life and job outcomes. In particular, two potential negativ…
Transnational families and the subjective well-being of migrant parents: Angolan and Nigerian parents in the Netherlands
Studies on transnational families argue that the subjective well-being of migrant parents is negatively affected by living separated from their children. Most studies employ qualitative methods without a control group and hence are not able to distinguish whether the effects found are associated with separation only or with other factors. This paper investigates the association between parental subjective well-being and parent-child separation by…
The Quality of Parent-Child Relationships in Transnational Families: Angolan and Nigerian Migrant Parents in The Netherlands
An increasing body of transnational family literature finds that transnational family life challenges relationships between migrant parents and their children in the home country. However, transnational families are not uniform and function differently according to their specific characteristics. The aim of this study is to investigate how different factors are associated with the quality of parent–child relationships in transnational families. B…
