Youth transition, mobility, and intergenerationality
When the halo of my overseas credentials disappeared
Singleton status of parents and intergenerational childcare collaboration in urban Chinese families
My study conceptualises intergenerational childcare collaboration as a dynamic, contested process embedded in multiple family relationships and shaped by parents' singleton status. Drawing on qualitative interviews with 66 urban Chinese parents, I compare three types of families (singleton couples, non-singleton couples and mixed couples) to reveal the variation and complexity of intergenerational collaboration in raising two children. My finding…
Gendered parenting and conjugal negotiation over children’s organised extracurricular activities
Although class differences and intra-class diversity in children's engagement in organised extracurricular activities have been studied extensively, less attention has been paid to internal family dynamics and conjugal negotiation in enrolling children in these activities. From the perspectives of gendered parenting and relational sociology, this study draws on qualitative data from 134 parents in 81 urban Chinese families to reveal their conjuga…
Extended family collaboration in childcare during the coronavirus disease-19 pandemic
The coronavirus disease-19 pandemic and the accompanying public health restrictions have posed significant challenges to parents with dependent children. A rich body of literature has examined the problems encountered by parents and their gendered division of labour in childcare during the pandemic. However, little attention has been paid to their interactions and collaborations with extended family for childcare. Drawing on qualitative interview…
Gendered Division of Digital Labor in Parenting
Bringing children to the cities
Increased family migration over the past few decades has given rise to a prominent issue: how migrant parents raise their children in a destination society. The literature on migrant parenting has primarily focused on the transnational/translocal parenting of left-behind children. However, despite the increasing number of migrant children, relatively less attention has been paid to the intrafamilial dynamics and gendered parenting of raising chil…
Getting rural migrant children into school in South China
Scholarship has examined how immigrant parents in North America and Europe acculturate their children to the education system in their receiving societies, with a focus on overcoming language barriers and coping with cultural differences in education between home and host societies. However, relatively less attention has been paid to the efforts of migrant parents in circumventing structural obstacles to the education access of their migrant chil…
From migrant student to migrant employee
Against the backdrop of the internationalisation of higher education and the increasing migration of young people in recent decades, how migrant students experience their school‐to‐work transition in host societies has become an important issue. Although the literature has explored the school‐to‐work transition of migrant students in higher education from a structural and an individual perspective, most studies have analysed this transition as a …
Should We Have a Second Child? Reproductive Decisions and Family Negotiation under China’s Two-child Policy
Although China has implemented a universal two-child policy to increase its low fertility rate, many Chinese couples still hesitate over having a second child. The existing literature focuses on how various factors affect reproductive decision-making in different social contexts, paying less attention to family dynamics and intra-family negotiation in the process of reproductive decision-making. Drawing on qualitative data obtained from 53 urban …
Migrant Mothering in Transition
Masculine Compromise
How has migration changed the Chinese family? Drawing on the life stories of 192 migrant men in southern China, this book examines the effect of mass rural-to-urban migration on family and gender relationships with a specific focus on changes in men and masculinities. Our findings show that migration has considerably transformed the relationships between migrant men and their lovers, spouses, children, and parents. Young and single migrant men ar…
Masculine Compromise
Who Takes Care of My Left-Behind Children? Migrant Mothers and Caregivers in Transnational Child Care
Our study investigates an understudied issue: care sharing and collaboration between migrant mothers and different caregivers of left-behind children in transnational childrearing. Using qualitative data obtained from 51 Filipina domestic workers in Hong Kong, our study compares the problems and strategies of migrant mothers working with their left-behind husbands with those of migrant mothers working with female kin, especially grandmothers. It …
Humanized management? Capital and migrant labour in a time of labour shortage in South China
This article explores changing strategies of managerial control in a labour-intensive factory in South China at a time of labour shortage. It describes power relationships between capital and migrant labour under changing labour market conditions, migrant cohorts and global business environment, and analyses a new paternalist managerial strategy named ‘humanized management’ and workers’ reactions to it. Although ‘humanized management’, as part of…
Diversified Transnational Mothering via Telecommunication
Recent research argues that the use of information and communication technology (ICT) has created a new channel through which transnational mothers can fulfill their maternal duties from afar. However, the literature pays little attention to the diversity of mothering practices via telecommunication. To fill this gap, our qualitative research on Filipina domestic workers in Hong Kong elaborates on the complexity and diversity of transnational mot…
Téléphone mobile et vie sociale des travailleurs émigrés en Chine du Sud
The aim of this paper is to present the relationships between cellphones and the social lives of migrant workers. The data is based mainly on an exploratory study undertaken in Dongguan City, Guangdong Province, in July 2003, on the social consequences of the take-up of cellphones among migrant workers. The paper first examines how socio-cultural factors such as face and gender affect the penetration rate and the ways of using the cellphone among…
