Mobile Childhoods in Filipino Transnational Families focuses on the (re)construction of the social lives of '1.5-generation' - migrants who spent part of their childhoods in the Philippines and subsequently moved to the different receiving countries of their parents during their school years. By paying attention to the perspectives and agency of these migrant children using the analytical lens of 'mobile childhoods', and by incorporating comparative methods into ethnographic studies of migration, this book explores how these children and young people with similar roots have dealt with challenges, constructed their sociality and crafted their sense of self in different ways. By foregrounding the contextual, relational and temporal nature of social relations and self-(re)definitions, this collection demonstrates the theoretical value of focusing on migrant children's perspectives and agency in the study of transnational families.
