Migrating To Reunite With Family Members Is One Of The Most Common Forms Of Migration In The World Today. This Book Focuses On The Family Reunion Migration That Takes Place Between Mainland Chinese Wives And Their Hong Kong Husbands In Post1997 Hong Kong. Despite Sharing One Formal Citizenship Status (That Of The Peoples Republic Of China) And Strong Similarities Of Culture, Ethnicity, And History, Mainland Chinese Wives Wait For Periods Of Up To Ten Years To Join Their Husbands And Other Family Members In Hong Kong. Once There, They Experience Significant Social And Economic Marginalization.
