Accumulating delay: Filipino Time, COVID-19 and experiences of male returnees in Cebu
Unique to this paper is a gendered examination of return migration from the point of view of male return migrants. I analyze the perspectives of repatriated male migrant workers during their return migration in the time of the COVID-19 pandemic. Through a discussion of time as “accumulated delay,” I suggest that the (de)constructions of masculinity concerning overseas Filipino workers’ (OFWs) experiences of waiting and delay under repatriation and quarantine can be understood through the theoretical lens of immobility in migration research. I suggest that systemic delays in the circulation of global capital, necessitated by the global health pandemic, challenged migrant men’s cohesive narrative of migrant productivity.
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.
