Literature on transnational grandparenting rarely focuses on how migrant grandparents contribute to the work/care reconciliation of their adult children, how they provide and receive care in contexts of mobility and precariousness, and the ways in which this is shaped by migration and social policy regimes. Drawing on the concept of moral geographies of care, this study reveals how idealized norms of care interact with Australian migration and work/care regimes in complex and contradictory ways to produce configurations of care in migrant families. We conclude that migration and work/care regimes are poorly aligned, compromising migrant families’ well-being and economic security.

跨境关怀的道德地理:澳大利亚移民祖父母的经验

关于跨国祖父母的文献很少关注移民祖父母如何促进成年子女的工作/照顾协调,他们如何在流动和不稳定的情况下提供和接受照顾,以及移民和社会政策制度如何塑造这种方式。本研究利用护理的道德地理学概念,揭示了理想化的护理规范如何以复杂且矛盾的方式与澳大利亚移民和工作/护理制度相互作用,从而在移民家庭中产生护理配置。我们得出的结论是,移民和工作/照顾制度不一致,损害了移民家庭的福祉和经济安全。
