Intergenerational Care and Intersecting Inequalities Among Transnational Families in Europe
This special issue has a central focus on intergenerational spaces of care , which have been rather under‐explored in studies of transnational families to date. In this introduction, we outline the potential innovative contribution of care ethics to understanding intergenerational caring relations within and across borders, showing how several papers in the special issue are enriched by this conceptual framing. The special issue also advances und…
Young People's Caring Practices in Transnational Families in Sweden and the UK
Children are often regarded as ‘dependents’ within migration studies, rendering their care work invisible. Drawing on the ethics of care, this paper analyses young people's active roles in caring for family members in Sweden and the UK and for transnational kin, based on qualitative and participatory research with young people (aged 6–25). Many young people provided emotional support, language brokering and practical assistance to navigate care, …
Enforced Transnationalism From an Ethics of Care Perspective
Heavily restricted humanitarian protection schemes, protracted waiting periods, and immobility regimes are increasingly disrupting familyhood and intra‐/intergenerational caregiving practices for many forced migrants and their extended families. This paper draws from the experiences of 16 displaced families of diverse ethnicities living in the UK with higher care needs related to disability, chronic illness and/or mental health, which have hither…
Raising concerns on the dangers of linking biological invasions to human migration
Advancing migration and health research by examining return migration
This essay offers an analysis of research on return migration and health by adopting the social determinants of health (SDH) framework proposed by the WHO. Specifically, we argue that the SDH are implicated in the decision to migrate, stay or return, which in itself also contributes to social health inequities. Most theoretical frameworks developed to study migration have predominantly considered primary migration movements. The lack of a fluid c…
The UK National Health Service's migration infrastructure in times of Brexit and Covid ‐19
The COVID‐19 pandemic and Brexit were separate yet inter‐related developments which affected the British National Health Service (NHS). The UK's state‐funded health sector had historically relied on migrant labour and depended on a migration infrastructure designed to solve its nursing labour shortages. The analysis of primary qualitative and secondary quantitative data shows that the NHS migration infrastructure increased its orientation towards…
Family Practices in Migration
International audience
Bereavement from afar
This exploratory article aims to contribute to scholarship on migrants’ experiences of bereavement and grief through the loss of a parent in their country of origin. It considers how transnational bereavement and grieving relate to the ever changing emotional geographies of migration and transnational families. Empirical material is drawn from a research project conducted with Latin American and Latino-British families living in the north of Engl…
Introducción al número especial
Welcome to this special issue, the first one to be published fully in English by the journal Migraciones, providing open access to a selection of articles that discuss methodological and ethical aspects of person-centred and mainly qualitative research conducted with migrant families, children and/or youth in diverse contexts
Onward Migration as a Coping Strategy? Latin Americans Moving from Spain to the UK Post-2008
Research has highlighted that increasing numbers of third-country migrants who have acquired European Union (EU) citizenship in one EU Member State employ the freedom of movement that it provides to onward migrate to other EU destinations. A range of socio-economic, cultural, and educational factors have been found to drive migrants to move onward to try to fulfil their migration aspirations across multiple locations. This paper suggests that ana…

Negotiating Ethnic Recognition Systems in the UK
Despite aiming to provide minority ethnic groups with material equality and protection from discrimination, the British ethno-cultural system of recognition has perpetuated social differentiation which is difficult to transcend. Drawing from interviews with informants and 10 in-depth case studies with Latin American and Latino-British families in the Yorkshire and Greater Manchester regions of the north of England, the paper explores the fraught …
In/visibility strategies and enacted diversity
This article explores how young people (aged 8–18) of Latin American descent living in the north of England negotiate sameness and belonging within a context of socio-cultural invisibility (sparse presence of Latin Americans). It is argued that these young people, who are characterised by a diversity of marked and unmarked embodiments, use in/visibility strategies in order to navigate the visual regime of ethno-cultural difference which character…
Transnational familyhood and the liquid life paths of South Americans in the UK
In this article, we explore the nature of identity in the contemporary transnational family. To do this we extend lifecourse scholarship by considering Bauman's liquid modernity thesis and introducing the concept of a liquid life path. Original empirical examples drawn from our work among South American migrants and their families living in London and northern England illustrate diverse patterns of identification; everyday practices and social no…
