‘This book confirms the strength of immigration scholarship in the Asian Pacific region and provides an indispensable mirror for the research community in Europe and North America. Highly recommended.’ – Jock Collins, Ethnic and Racial Studies
This book examines the overall trends and labour patterns of migrants, their relationship with the state, and the impacts they have on the societies in which they work and sometimes settle. The book adopts a multidisciplinary perspective which encompasses economics, history, politics, geography, and sociology, and presents a unique body of new empirical research that forms the basis of many of the chapters.
