Theorizing Risk, Money and Moralities in Migration

Principal investigator Jørgen Carling (), María Hernández-Carretero (), May-Len Skilbrei ()
Description
This project set out to develop social-science theory in three areas of particular relevance to the study of international migration: the assessment and management of risk, the roles of money and material wealth in interpersonal relationships, and the moralities which inform migration decisions and subsequent transnational relationships. These themes were examined in relation to three cross-cutting dimensions: gender relations, the mediating roles of geographical space, and the dichotomy between self and others.
