Moral Geographies of Care across Borders: The Experience of Migrant Grandparents in Australia

Myra Hamilton et al.

Summary: There is limited literature on transnational grandparenting that explores how migrant grandparents contribute to the work/care reconciliation of their adult children and provide and receive care in contexts of mobility and precariousness. This study reveals that idealized norms of care interact with Australian migration and work/care policies in complex and contradictory ways, creating configurations of care within migrant families.
