Are more women migrating than men? Why? https://padlet.com/SOCI90010/week4_Qs/wish/244786255 Miki]]> 2018-03-21 23:01:46 UTC https://padlet.com/SOCI90010/week4_Qs/wish/244786255 Week 4 questions by Hugh Binks https://padlet.com/SOCI90010/week4_Qs/wish/244840487 -          Why are there more increasingly more female than male migrants in certain parts of the world?
-          Will more legislation allow for greater protection of female migrants?
-          Should migration policies concerning female migrants be dictated solely by women?

That is, do the economic and social complexions of receiving nations vary so wildly that it may be infeasible to discuss equalising migration flows along any metric beyond those which concern productivity?

How does this alter the gender roles within the household particularly in South-East Asian countries like the Philippines? misidro https://padlet.com/SOCI90010/week4_Qs/wish/244859920 Martin Isidro]]> 2018-03-22 07:44:41 UTC https://padlet.com/SOCI90010/week4_Qs/wish/244859920 Cheng Peng 1424153754 https://padlet.com/SOCI90010/week4_Qs/wish/244905754 Yeoh's article "Engendering International Migration: Perspectives from within Asia" includes debates and new research focuses of female migrants' experiences in Asian countries and regions, and she argues the migration regimes in Asian countries and in Western developed countries are "fundamentally different". How are these regimes different from each other? Are female migrants really facing many differences when migrating to Asian regions and to Western developed societies? ]]> 2018-03-22 10:23:48 UTC https://padlet.com/SOCI90010/week4_Qs/wish/244905754 What are some of the ways that female migrants may experience migration differently than their male counterparts? How can existing immigration policies of major industrialized nations be expanded or amended to better protect the increasingly female migration population? https://padlet.com/SOCI90010/week4_Qs/wish/244968747 Chelsea Hawkinson]]> 2018-03-22 13:12:32 UTC https://padlet.com/SOCI90010/week4_Qs/wish/244968747 1. How is migration gendered? What type of policies, in both destination and origin states, can be established to address these gender-related issues? 2. What are the short-term (when domestic workers are abroad) and long-term (when they return to their country) economic and social impacts of migration of domestic workers on families and children? https://padlet.com/SOCI90010/week4_Qs/wish/245000499 Priya]]> 2018-03-22 14:05:14 UTC https://padlet.com/SOCI90010/week4_Qs/wish/245000499 csyddall https://padlet.com/SOCI90010/week4_Qs/wish/245000590 Why is it important to study gender migration trends? 

Is the systematic ‘protection’ of women, particularly, mothers of small children sexist and a violation of their human rights? 

How can gender and migration research transition from identifying the differences between men and women to understand them as systematically interrelated? 

Is it beneficial to have gendered migration policies? Why/Why not? 

How does understanding the ways in which different transnational flows, particularly among women, enrich our understanding of migrants as a gendered subject?  

Hi, Liudmila my apology for doing this week's reading last week - see updated questions

How to build a system of CM profitable for destinations, origins and migrants?
Why authorities interested in development need to consider that migrants circulate to origin countries?
What kind of integration between regional- and national- level development policy and migration policy should exist to influence circular migration?

Gender and Migration Policies in Asia
Why did economies with greater oil and gas productions not necessitate any increase in the local female workforce?
Are the migrants the threat to national identity and nation building?
How to control fair pay rates and working hours for migrants and avoid other violations (considering GCC policies)?

Engendering International Migration: Perspectives from within Asia
Are the traits of Australian families (e. g. “astronaut families”) applicable for other nation’s families?

As this mainky highlights predominant type of North-South migration, how can this be applied to the recent trend of South-South mobility as stressed by Yeoh and Oishi’ articles? Furthermore, will the feminization of migration as discussed by both authors be better managed by interconnected strategy of circular migration between sending and destination countries?]]> 2018-03-22 21:20:41 UTC https://padlet.com/SOCI90010/week4_Qs/wish/245253364 Week 4 - Steph Kilpatrick https://padlet.com/SOCI90010/week4_Qs/wish/245268067 Yeoh talks about the binaries that migrant women are forced into - heroes of foreign exchange vs preservation of sexual and moral purity. What dichotomies do migrant women face in host countries (that they move to)?

What dichotomies do migrants as a whole face? ie Both 'stealing jobs' and 'dole buldgers'.

How do the narrative of home countries being the 'motherland' and 'mothers of the nation' impact on women's ability to migrate?

How can these countries facilitate both development and poverty reduction (the needs of caregiver and economic difficulties)?
