Based on Catholic and Confucian social ethics, this book develops an ethic of solidarity and reciprocity with the migrants in Asia who are marginalized. Mary Mee-Yin Yuen draws off her own pastoral experiences in the Church, the situation of the wider Christian community, and the personal experiences of migrant women from various Asian countries in Hong Kong, to describe the features and practices of an ethical approach that emphasizes solidarity and reciprocity. Interdisciplinary in nature, this book integrates Catholic social ethics, moral philosophy, Chinese Confucian ethics, social sciences, and cultural studies to investigate the phenomenon of international and intra-national migration in Asia, particularly with regard to women migrants moving from South Asia, Southeast Asia, and Mainland China to Hong Kong.
Mary Mee-Yin Yuen is Professor of Moral Theology at the Holy Spirit Seminary College of Theology and Philosophy, Hong Kong. She is also a researcher of the Holy Spirit Study Centre and the Centre for Catholic Studies at the Chinese University of Hong Kong. She believes that her teaching and research work are inseparable from her social ministries.
