Abstract

This symposium offers a critical discussion of the logics and dynamics behind the new ‘care circulation’ perspective offered by Loretta Baldassar and Laura Merla in their edited volume entitled “Transnational Families, Migration and the Circulation of Care”. This contribution highlights the richness of this new framework, and sets out some key issues that have not yet been fully addressed in the study of caregiving in the age of global migration, such as the need to ‘bring back’ the body and the materiality of care in our conceptualization of transnational practices of care.
