While the first volume provided a discussion of a wide spectrum of topics concerning Asian migration – from historical perspectives to updated trends – this volume is organised around three major themes, namely “Women and Migration”, “Refugee and Borderland Migration”, and “Remittances and Migration Economics”.
The book contains new migration stories that provide fresh insights into human movements, and enhances academic discussions of migration through case studies from Asia.
