It aims to drive the analytical theory from a methodological nationalism to a transient migration approach, and to capture the sense of “transience” of the new wave of Chinese migration in a broader Asia-Pacific context. A mixed-methods approach was adopted, with data collected from Chinese migrant website communities, questionnaires and in-depth interviews. The findings show that the Chinese migrants lead a consumption-oriented migration life that benefits from hypermobility by enjoying a “mobility surplus” in education as a family project. This article discusses the temporariness as a strategy that the Chinese use to bridge migratory resources in a permanent state of in-betweenness. The key issue that has been highlighted is the meaning of being transient in everyday life. As it articulates authenticity and the meaning of “self” in modern life, transient migration, thus, does not aim at its overcoming, but is rather a form of life in itself.","PeriodicalId":46248,"journal":{"name":"Asian and Pacific Migration Journal","volume":"22 1","pages":"511 - 535"},"PeriodicalIF":0.9,"publicationDate":"2022-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"83443581","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, analysis of variance (ANOVA) post hoc tests using data from the American Community Survey (ACS) 2010–2019 on China- and India-born immigrants revealed otherwise. Both immigrant groups have significantly higher levels of education, better occupation and higher earnings compared to all foreign-born immigrants and natives. During 2010–2019, the earnings of China- and India-born immigrants increased faster than the natives’ due to their higher educational attainment. Thus, the general characteristics and experiences of all foreign-born vis-a-vis natives cannot be generalized across specific immigrant groups. Immigrants from different origin countries who have different skill levels and competencies show different earning differentials compared with the natives. Some immigrant groups even become more productive over time due to the increased portability of the human capital of their latest cohorts.","PeriodicalId":46248,"journal":{"name":"Asian and Pacific Migration Journal","volume":"29 1","pages":"382 - 401"},"PeriodicalIF":0.9,"publicationDate":"2022-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"73598361","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

With careful analyses of the interaction between the actors and factors at micro, meso and macro levels, the author gives voice to these conventionally-defined lowskilled, undereducated, and often socially disadvantaged and invisible migrant women and theorizes their lived experiences. Nonetheless, heterogeneity exists among Taiwanese-Chinese couples. There is a growing number of Taiwanese-Chinese couples who are highly educated and have different marital, employment, and migration experiences from those of the researched women. Thus, the empirical findings in this book represent the experiences of a portion, rather than the entire population of Chinese women who marry Taiwanese men. Unfortunately, the author does not provide an overview of the changing patterns in marriages across the Taiwan Strait. Nor does she discuss how the changing marriage patterns influence the reader’s interpretation of her findings or the implications of these changing patterns for research on migration across the Chinese border. In sum, this book is theoretically and empirically engaging despite the weaknesses mentioned above. I would recommend it to researchers in the field of migration studies, particularly those focusing on Asia. It is also a good read for non-academic readers interested in contemporary China and marriage migration in East Asia.","PeriodicalId":46248,"journal":{"name":"Asian and Pacific Migration Journal","volume":"54 1","pages":"338 - 340"},"PeriodicalIF":0.9,"publicationDate":"2022-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"90992323","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It is estimated that are 13.9 million international migrants residing in the subregion while some 43.4 million South Asians reside outside of their country of origin (UN DESA, 2020). Temporary labor migration, mostly towards the Gulf countries, is an important feature of SouthAsia’smigration experience. Migrant workers use land and sea routes to reach their destination countries. Thus far, there has been limited discussion in South Asia aboutmaritimemigration in the Bay of Bengal to reach intended destinations. It is important to address this gap and the vulnerabilities migrants face in maritime migration. Furthermore, the COVID-19 pandemic has increased the vulnerabilities of migrant workers, especially women migrant workers, as they face joblessness, wage theft, no access to health care, violence and ill-treatment (ACAPS, 2020; Foley and Piper, 2020). Although several international conventions, declarations and recommendations have been formulated, including the Global Compact onMigration (GCM), the implementation part remains weak. Therefore, it is essential to discuss and empower civil society organizations to monitor the implementation of the GCM.
