description

AbstractFor some time now, migrant financial remittances internationally have been the target of politics and research in many ways. However, the predominant focus of looking at remittances is from a development perspective. This article looks at this approach from a critical perspective and calls for an expansion of the discussion on remittances by linking financial remittances and transnational family care.
