“Chapters also offer the reader a useful lens through which to view and understand existing theoretical perspectives in a complementary manner, in light of recent empirical migratory phenomena. … Global and Asian Perspectives on International Migration is a capacious volume that is highly theoretically focused; this work enters the fray by presenting new areas for theoretically-led empirical research in a thought-provoking manner.” (John Lowe, Asian and Pacific Migration Journal, Vol. 24 (4), 2015)
