Summary/Abstract |
This paper takes as its starting point the multidirectionality and multi-sitedness of change triggered by migration, especially in relation to gender and migrant precarity. More specifically, it interrogates four strands of the gendered migration debate related to marriage migration: various forms of precarity faced by migrant women and their implications in socio-economic and legal terms; changes to family patterns and social reproduction connected to marriage migration; social policies in origin and destination countries and their relevance to women’s unpaid care work duties; and the productive and reproductive functions involved in the creation of a precarity that leads to, and results, from marriage migration. It points to remaining gaps in knowledge and offers ideas for future lines of inquiry into marriage migration in general and in the context of Asia specifically.

Summary/Abstract |
This article analyzes the experiences of female marriage migrants who have returned to their home communities in Vietnam and Mongolia after escaping from their marriages in South Korea. It examines how these women returnees experience the transnational production of legal precarity during the processes of divorce and return migration. National marriage migration policies and institutions that determine the conditions of precarity are not confined to the sovereignty of a territorially circumscribed state but are transnationally extendable, affecting the lives of marriage migrants long after they have returned to their home countries where they suffer from various forms of liminal legality. This article discusses how women become separated or divorced, how they arrive at a legally ambiguous status, and what limits their capacity to be reintegrated into their home countries. A new transnational framework for legal assistance is urgently required to find solutions to the problems faced by marriage migrant women and their children.

Summary/Abstract |
Why are female migrants rarely attacked in “Sons of the Soil” (SoS) violence? Based on interviews with key stakeholders in Indonesia and China, we argue that women are shielded from the brunt of migration-related violence due to gendered patterns of migration and economic integration that highlights the positive contributions of female migration to the host region while drawing attention to the threat posed by male migration. By bringing together the literature on migration, gender, inequalities, and conflict, this article makes a foray into the previously unexamined dynamics affecting victimization patterns in armed conflict in general and SoS conflict in particular.
