This innovative book§analyses the role gender plays in the relationship between globalisation,§migration and reproductive labour. Exploring the gendered experiences of§migrant men and the social construction of racialised masculinities in the§context of the 'international division of reproductive labour' (IDRL), it§examines how new patterns of consumption and provision of paid domestic/care§work lead to forms of inequality across racial, ethnic, gender and class lines.§Based on an ethnographic analysis of the working and family lives of migrant§men within the IDRL, it focuses on the practices and strategies of migrant men§employed as domestic/care workers in Italy. The authors highlight how migrant§men's experiences of reproductive labour and family are shaped by global forces§and national public policies, and how they negotiate the changes and potential§conflicts that their 'feminised' jobs entail. They draw on the voices of men§and women of different nationalities to show how masculinities are constructed§within the home through migrant men's interactions with male and female§employers, women relations and their wider ethnic network. Bridging the divide§between scholarship on international migration, care work and masculinity§studies, this book will interest sociologists, anthropologists, economists,§political scientists and social policy experts.§
