With the gradual acknowledgement of the potential benefits that migration can hold for development, the relationship between migration and education is a growing area of research. This book explores how the decisions people make in terms of both their migration choices and educational investments, mediated as they are by gender, class, caste and nationality, can potentially contribute to earning incomes, building social and symbolic capital, or reshaping gender relations, all elements contributing to the process of economic and social mobility. The ideas presented in this book take a more varied and nuanced view of the relationship between education and migration, not just focusing on the economic motivations of migrants. It was originally published as a special issue of Compare: A Journal of Comparative and International Education.
