"Migrant Citizenship from Below offers a significant addition to discussions on migrant domestic work with its focus on irregular migrants in Germany. It describes the gendered experiences of Filipino men and women, including mothers and fathers, as domestic workers, parents, and activists. Offering the first gendered comparative account of domestic worker migration in Europe, this book is a welcome contribution to the literature on migration." - Rhacel Parreñas, Professor of Sociology and Gender Studies, University of Southern California, USA, and author of Servants of Globalization: Migration and Domestic Work (2001)
"This exemplary ethnography of Philippine irregular migrants in Germany reveals the virtues of long-term research made possible by high levels of trust between subjects and researcher. Shinozaki's rich empirical account and the sophisticated theoretical grounding informing the idea of migrant citizenship results in a major contribution to our understanding of migrants forced to live in the shadows. Without downplaying the difficulties of their lives, she shows these workers to be agents of their own lives." - Peter Kivisto, Richard A. Swanson Professor of Social Thought, Augustana College, USA
"Kyoko Shinozaki's book provides an insightful account of how new citizenship practices are forged and constitutes a significant contribution to our understanding of citizenship as transformative and inclusive, intersecting with gender, class, migrant status, and level of education." - Mirjana Morokvasic-Müller, CNRS and Université Paris Ouest, France
"Kyoko Shinozaki's book is an excellent contribution to the burgeoning literature on Filipino migrant domestic workers and their transnational family-lives. The skillful presentation of a broad range of ethnographic data makes this book special. Shinozaki's vivid portrayal of the enactment of Filipino migrants' citizenship through the lens of their working and family life renders this book a sophisticated exploration of gender, transnational livelihoods, and irregular migration, a must read for students and scholars interested in global care issues." - Helma Lutz, Goethe University Frankfurt, author of The New Maids: Transnational Women and the Care Economy (2011)
