Abstract
The social unit of the family has been one of the principal channels and drivers of contemporary migration. The family-shaped movement of people is known in the literature as “family-related migration” (Kofman, 2004), and more recently as “family migration” (Cooke, 2008)—“migration events that are made within the context of a family” and/or “with respect to events in the lives of distant, extended family members” (Cooke, 2008: 260). This phenomenon includes family formation, family reunification, accompanying family and international adoption (Migration Data Portal, 2020). It takes place alongside or overlaps with other migratory movements such as labor, student, climate-/war-induced and sexual migrations. Among the migration corridors
期刊介绍:
The Asian and Pacific Migration Journal (APMJ) was launched in 1992, borne out of the conviction of the need to have a migration journal originating from the region that would provide a regional perspective of migration. Users will be able to read any article published from 1992 to 2006, to search all the articles by words or keywords and to copy or print partially or fully any article.
