Transnational Family Communication

1. Introduction: “I Wish I Was a Bird” -- 2. Framing Transnational Family Communication: “It Feels like a Contradiction, Close and Far” -- 3. My Methodological Approach: “It Reminds Me of Lots of Things” -- 4. Cars and Schools and Heart is in Canada: Divergent Communication Pathways of Immigrant Women -- 5. The ICT-Based Networks of Highly Skilled Immigrant Women: “I Had Bigger Ambitions” -- 6. Care Talk within Transnational Families: “I Hold Myself So I Don’t Cry” -- 7. Considering Immigrant Women and Equitable Communication.This book explores the struggles that immigrant women experience when communicating with their transnational families through information and communication technologies (ICTs). Sondra Cuban recounts the fascinating stories of sixty female immigrants living in Washington State, and explores how gender, social class, nationality, and language influence their ICT usage. She addresses the emotional labor involved in interacting with the families they left behind as well as their ingenious communication systems which challenge the existing research surrounding this unique phenomenon. Early chapters of this book detail the current arguments and theories of transnational family communication in order to propose a new model thereof. Throughout, larger questions of global equality are addressed. .
