Migration has transformed Taiwanese society in the last 20 years, and this edited volume showcases some of the leading researchers working on migration to and from Taiwan. The chapters approach migration from a range of disciplinary perspectives, including international relations, sociology, social work, film studies, political science, gender studies, geography and political economy and so the book will have great appeal to scholars and students interested in the politics of Taiwan, Taiwanese society and ehtnic identity as well as those focusing on migration in East Asia and comparative migration studies.
