This book is a comprehensive examination of female migration and the situation of urban women in Asia. Drawing upon the insights of sociologists, anthropologists, economists, geographers, and demographers, it documents the changes that are in progress and looks in depth at the causes and consequences of emerging patterns of female mobility.
Women in Asia are on the move. The migration of women from village to city has increased dramatically in the past decade, and many of these new migrants are young single women seeking jobs. In several Asian countries, women migrants now outnumber men by a substantial margin. Along with the physical movement from rural to urban areas come new roles
