This book seeks to understand the motivation behind retirement migration and how precarity in later life contributes to this trend. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e Drawing on accounts of retirees from different nations, the book examines how welfare policies in their home country and their country of migration interact to shape their experiences of migration. It shows how ageism impacts social precarity across different social classes, and across economic, social and health dimensions. It also evaluates how local and global systems of inequalities influence retirement migrants' experience, providing both opportunities and constraints that differ across countries.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMarion Repetti is Professor in the School of Social Work at the University of Applied Sciences and Arts Western Switzerland HES-SO Valais-Wallis. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e Toni Calasanti is Professor of Sociology at Virginia Tech.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 160\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.34 x 9.21 x 6.14 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e January 21, 2025\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53062924271923,"sku":"9781447358220","price":77.02,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0300\/5595\/6612\/files\/DAwh8E523q9781447358220.webp?v=1771445065","url":"https:\/\/www.vysn.com\/products\/retirement-migration-and-precarity-in-later-life-paperback","provider":"VYSN","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
