The chapter then explores the motives parents have for making their daughters nuns, the advantages young women perceive in pursuing a religious vocation, and gendered notions of virtue that affect life opportunities for nuns. The main theme of the chapter centers on how the modernizing of Buddhist institutions and educational migration are transforming the nun’s role from a servant in her parents’ village household to a disciple of the Buddha’s teachings who resides in an urban institution.","PeriodicalId":272401,"journal":{"name":"From a Trickle to a Torrent","volume":"14 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-10-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124289413","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It then addresses the questions of why and how parents are sending children away for school and explores parents’ thoughts on the benefits of secular education. The chapter then analyzes educational migration within a framework of migration network theory, extends the cumulative causation argument by demonstrating how monks play a role in finding places in schools for their younger relatives, and discusses the potential for educational migration to enhance rather than reduce socioeconomic disparities.","PeriodicalId":272401,"journal":{"name":"From a Trickle to a Torrent","volume":"10 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-10-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127322733","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It begins by analyzing the sending of children to distant institutions as a form of fosterage intended to enhance their livelihood opportunities, then explores how educational migration is driving a unique trajectory of population change that diverges in key ways from the forecasts of demographic transition theory. The focus then shifts to endogamy to illustrate how marital choices are expanding in conjunction with newfound ideologies and autonomy, but not without bounds, due to the enduring influence of parents. The chapter concludes by critiquing the notion that arranged marriage is an artifact of a traditional society that withers under the forces of secular education and modernization.","PeriodicalId":272401,"journal":{"name":"From a Trickle to a Torrent","volume":"36 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-10-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127741255","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The chapter concludes by linking men’s village-refined ritual skills with seasonal migration to cities, where they perform rites for urban Buddhist patrons and thereby establish social ties that facilitate educational migration for their children.","PeriodicalId":272401,"journal":{"name":"From a Trickle to a Torrent","volume":"32 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-10-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123822146","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
