Exploring the association between grandparental care and child development
Grandparental care has become an involuntary choice in life for many families, mainly due to parents' unavailability to provide care and the lack of public or affordable private childcare. This phenomenon has raised concerns regarding the effects of grandparental care along the dimensions of child development. This study aims to test the association between grandparental care and child development in three dimensions: subjective wellbeing, behavi…
Fighting Covid-19 in rural communities
Taking a remote village in Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region as a case study, this paper discusses how coordinated mobilization constructed a temporary grassroots-level emergency order in response to the Covid-19 pandemic. The study reveals that the temporary emergency order was established through a combination of state power, villagers' understanding of the infection risks of the coronavirus, and village self-management traditions. It finds that…

Transnationalizing lifelong learning
This paper examines the dynamic intersection of lifelong learning, transnational migration and migrant motherhood by locating Chinese immigrant mothers’ transnational learning and mothering experience. It aims to understand how Chinese immigrant mothers learn mothering skills, reconstruct identities, and practise mothering in transnational spaces. Based on 30 in-depth interviews with Chinese immigrant mothers in Canada, this paper finds three maj…
Diagnosis as a sociocultural practice
With an increasing number of children diagnosed with Autism-Spectrum-Disorder in Canada, this paper focuses on how their mothers, as Asian immigrant women, experience the process of diagnosis and learn to parent their children. By taking two Asian (Korean and Chinese) mothers’ critical personal narratives as major data sources, this paper aims to explore the diagnosis process of Autism-Spectrum-Disorder through a sociocultural lens on the interse…
Mobilizing Mothering
With global migration, many Chinese mothers quit their jobs in China and go abroad to help their young and teenaged children live and study in North America. Previous studies on capital and migration have examined how cultural capital interacts with people's migration processes to achieve educational credentials (Kim 2016; Munk, Poutvaara, and Foged 2012; Pherali 2012), and how migrant parents help children acquire cultural capital (Carlson, Gerh…
Chinese Immigrant Mothers Negotiating Family and Career
Using an intersectional approach, this study examines Chinese immigrant mothers’ negotiation between career and family and the role of social support. Based on eight individual interviews with Chinese immigrant mothers in Toronto, we found that their employment opportunities were highly limited by the intersection of immigration status and gender. A model is proposed to explain the effect of various factors on the mothers’ career decisions. Three…
