Over the last few decades, research on labour migration has experienced excessive domination by economic explanation. Econometric analysis has been such a dominant factor in the studies of international labour migration that the very language of analysis tends to marginalize social andcultural factors. Focusing on Bangladeshi labour migration to Singapore, this book, therefore, addresses the socio-cultural forces that influence migration motivation, the social experiences that shape the lives of these migrants overseas, and the developmental implications that bring about in migrant families back home. The analysis should help shed light on some key issues such as migration decision-making, migrant networks, social life of migrants on foreign soil, migration and poverty, and migration and social development from a multidisciplinary perspective, and should be especially useful to students, researchers, policy makers, journalists, and the general scholars, who have interest in migration studies. In addition to migration scholars, this book will have an appeal to the scholars who broadly deal with social changes in developing countries.
