Abstract:

In the 1920s and early 1930s, Filipino men patronized the popular American social institution of the taxi dancehalls, comprising nearly one quarter of the taxi dancehall patrons in major cities such as Detroit and Los Angeles (see Cressey 1932). Taxi dancehalls were at the height of their popularity during this period, often serving as a key site of sociality amongst and between immigrants. Women were employed as dancers for hire, and men, predominantly immigrants, were their principal patrons. Filipinos, workers and students alike, came dressed in McIntosh suits, eager to spend their hard-earned wages on taxi dancers. Here, Filipino men made rare social contact with women—taxi dancers who were largely white, occasionally Mexican, and very rarely Filipina (see Meckel 1995 for a detailed study of taxi dancers). Filipinos would purchase their dance tickets, choose their favorite girl within a group of taxi dancers, and move to the music of a live band. For ten cents per dance number, slow or fast, Filipino men could choose to dance with the same dancer until their tickets ran out or opt for the pleasures of another. Like a taxi ride, each dance came with a ticketed price and the expectation of a tip, either in the form of a drink, a sandwich, or perhaps even a marriage proposal.

Abstract:

Abstract Purpose: We compared survival rates for American Filipino and White women with breast cancer in the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) database diagnosed between 2004 and 2015. Methods: We performed a retrospective cohort study of Filipino and White women with breast cancer diagnosed between 2004 to 2015 in the SEER18 registries database. We collected data on age and year at diagnosis, median household income, marital status, tumour size, tumour grade, lymph node status, stage, receptor status (ER, PR, and HER-2/neu receptor), surgical treatment (lumpectomy versus mastectomy), receipt of chemotherapy and radiotherapy, and death. Filippino and White women were compared for demographic, pathologic and treatment variables and differences were assessed using standardized differences. We compared crude breast cancer-specific mortality rates between the two ethnic groups. We also calculated adjusted hazard ratios (HR) in a propensity-matched design using the Cox proportional hazards model. Women were matched on the year and age at diagnosis (both within 2 years), tumour grade, nodal status, clinical stage, ER status, HER2/neu status and propensity score. The propensity score accounted for marital status, household income, tumour size, PR status and surgical procedure. A log-rank test was used to compare differences between groups using the Kaplan-Meier method. P values < .05 were considered statistically significant. Results: There were 10,834 Filipino women (2.5%) and 414,618 White women (97.5%) with stage I-IV breast cancer captured in the SEER database. Mean age at diagnosis was younger for Filipino women compared with White women (57.5 vs 60.8 years, P < .0001). There was a higher proportion of Filipino women presenting with a higher clinical stage at presentation (P < .0001), node-positivity (35.4% vs 33.4%, P = .0002), and HER-2 positivity (12.1% vs 7.4%, P < .0001) compared with White women. Among women with stage I-IIIC breast cancer, 10-year breast cancer-specific survival was 87.7% for Filipino women, compared with 85.6% for White women. Filipino women had a lower rate of breast cancer-specific death as compared with White women (HR 0.84; 95% CI 0.78 - 0.89; P < .0001). We performed a 1:3 propensity-matched analysis and matched 8,120 Filipino patients to 24,360 white patients. The cancer-specific survival from breast cancer after 10 years of follow-up among matched patients was 92.9% for Filipino women and 90.2% for White women. The hazard ratio in the matched analysis was 0.73 (95% CI 0.66 - 0.81), compared with the crude hazard ratio of 0.84 (95% CI 0.78 - 0.89). The matched analysis demonstrate that Filipino women had better survival than White women overall, and within subgroups defined by age of diagnosis, tumour grade, clinical stage, nodal status, estrogen receptor and HER2 receptor status. The most pronounced effects were observed for HER2 positivity (HR 0.38, 95% CI 0.20-0.71), node-negative patients (HR 0.68, 95% CI 0.57-0.82) and stage II patients (HR 0.68, 95% CI 0.58 - 0.79). Conclusion: Filipino women with breast cancer present with more advanced disease compared to White women but have a better breast cancer-specific survival. Over a 13-year follow-up period, Filipino women with stage I-IIIC breast cancer experienced a 27% reduction in rate of breast cancer death as compared with White women with similar cancers. Compliance with treatment and follow-up or intrinsic biological differences may underlie the improved survival of Filipino women compared with White women, despite presenting with more advanced disease.

Abstract:

Filipino women comprise more than half of the Philippine-born population in Australia. They adopt Australian citizenship readily and have high labor force participation. In this article, I examined Filipino women's practice of Australian citizenship in the world of work. Based on in-depth interviews with 36 Filipino women, I adopted feminist conception of citizenship which considers paid work as well as caring work in the domestic sphere. Findings from the study suggest that becoming an Australian citizenship not only provides Filipino women membership in the political community. More importantly, it empowers them to negotiate their subject position as racialized immigrant women in the labor market. Negotiating gender roles in the family, however, is a different arena.

Abstract:

This paper sought to unravel the contemporary views on Filipino woman through speech and though presentation using Magnificence written by Estrella Alfon. Speech and thought presentation is primarily concerned as to how a writer reveals the speech and thought of their characters as they interact with other characters in the literary work. As literature remains a reflection of the society, speech and thought presentation gave way to the perception of how a Filipino woman is now seen in the society. The analysis revealed the following views: an unconventional woman as a mother; an equal partner; and a ‘magnificent’ and headstrong woman. As these contemporary views on Filipino were explored, an acceptance to more progressive perspective on the Filipino women will most likely emerge in the future.

Abstract:

Objective: This study aims to examine the provision of assistance among older persons in the Philippines who experience difficulty with activities of daily living (ADLs) or instrumental activities of daily living (IADLs). Method: Data for this research are drawn from the 2007 Philippine Study on Aging (PSOA). Cross-tabulations and regression analyses are used to identify who provides assistance to older Filipinos. Results: The study shows that the Filipino family, particularly spouse and daughters, plays an important role in providing assistance to older Filipinos who need help in carrying out functional activities. This provision of caregiving, however, follows a gendered pattern. Specifically, the spouse provides assistance to older men, whereas daughters provide assistance to older women. Grandchildren and noncoresident family members, to some extent, are also active in providing care to older Filipinos. Discussion: The Filipino family remains faithful to its filial duty toward older persons, but who provides care and the way it is provided are likely to change due to the demographic changes and values shifts that have swept the country.

Abstract:

This project aims to understand and explore the notion of empowerment in relation to the childbirth experiences of Filipino women in Brisbane, Australia. Objectives include assessing the responsiveness of the health system to Filipino migrant women; exploring different cultural perspectives on childbirth; and assessing the understanding of the health rights of Filipinas in relation to child and maternal health services. The overwhelming majority of the women in the sample were found to have experienced problems with their childbirth. Most reported that these were due to discrimination, language difficulties, a lack of emotional and social support, marked cultural differences with respect to pregnancy, childbirth and the post-partal care of mother and child. They also reported a lack of knowledge and information about Australian maternal and child health care services. Despite successful clinical outcomes it is suggested that the notion of empowerment could provide insight into ways of improving the birth experience in order to ameliorate many of the problems typical of this group.

Abstract:

Background: Breast cancer patients need to be treated not only physically and emotionally but also spiritually. Hence, the assessment of the spirituality of patients is essential to provide holistic nursing care. However, there was no culturally valid and reliable instrument that measures spirituality among Filipino women with breast cancer.Objective: The study was conducted to determine the psychometric properties of the spiritual index of well-being among Filipino women with breast cancer.Methods: A descriptive cross-sectional design was utilized in the study, and a sample of 170 Filipino women with breast cancer were included. The World Health Organization guidelines were used to translate the original instrument to Filipino, and content validity was computed using the Davis technique. Also, confirmatory factor analysis with maximum likelihood estimation was performed to assess the construct validity of the instrument. Cronbach’s α and item-total correlations were done to assess the internal consistency of the Filipino version of the spiritual index of well-being.Results: The Filipino version of the spiritual index of well-being had an item content validity index (I-CVI) ranging from 0.86 to 0.92 and a scale content validity index (S-CVI) of 0.95. The confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) showed factor loadings of 0.42 to 0.72. Also, the CFA model revealed a 𝜒2/df = 2.51, root mean square error of approximation= 0.074, comparative fit index= 0.091, goodness of fit index=0.98, Tucker-Lewis index= 0.93, incremental fit index= 0.91, and standard root mean square residual== 0.072.Conclusion: The Filipino version of the spiritual index of well-being was cross-culturally valid and reliable in measuring the spiritual index of well-being among Filipino women with breast cancer.

Abstract:

Objective: To determine the prevalence and investigate potential predictors of psychological distress in Filipino women living in Queensland, Australia. Methods: The sample of n = 487 women (88% response rate) was drawn from Filipino organization membership lists and supplemented by snowball sampling. Participants were interviewed in their homes or at a community event in 1996/1997. Follow-up in 1997/1998 involved n = 346 women (71% response rate) who were interviewed either in their homes or by telephone. The two surveys included measurement of demographic, immigration, physical health, satisfaction with life in Australia and life event variables. The GHQ-28 was included in the follow-up survey as a measure of psychological distress. Results: The proportion of women having an above threshold score (using the cut-off of 4/5) on the GHQ-28 was 23%. Women who were single, dissatisfied with life in Australia, had reported a major change in their financial situation, their relationship or their health in the year between surveys were significantly more likely to have an above threshold score. Conclusions: The level of mental distress among Filipinas in Queensland appears to be slightly higher than the levels reported in the general population but lower than other migrant groups. The determinants of mental distress in this population contrast with those in the general Australian population and other migrant groups. The social context of these determinants in Filipinas needs to be elicited for an understanding of these differences.

Abstract:

ObjectivesTo develop a breast cancer risk prediction model for Chamorro and Filipino women of the Mariana Islands and compare its performance to that of the Breast Cancer Risk Assessment Tool (BCRAT).DesignCase–control study.SettingClinics/facilities and other community-based settings on Guam and Saipan (Northern Mariana Islands).Participants245 women (87 breast cancer cases and 158 controls) of Chamorro or Filipino ethnicity, age 25–80 years, with no prior history of cancer (other than skin cancer), residing on Guam or Saipan for at least 5 years.Primary and secondary outcome measuresBreast cancer risk models were constructed using combinations of exposures previously identified to affect breast cancer risk in this population, population breast cancer incidence rates and all-cause mortality rates for Guam.ResultsModels using ethnic-specific relative risks performed better than those with relative risks estimated from all women. The model with the best performance among both ethnicities (the Breast Cancer Risk Model (BRISK) model; area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC): 0.64 and 0.67 among Chamorros and Filipinos, respectively) included age at menarche, age at first live birth, number of relatives with breast cancer and waist circumference. The 10-year breast cancer risk predicted by the BRISK model was 1.28% for Chamorros and 0.89% for Filipinos. Performance of the BCRAT was modest among both Chamorros (AUC: 0.60) and Filipinos (AUC: 0.55), possibly due to incomplete information on BCRAT risk factors.ConclusionsThe ability to develop breast cancer risk models for Mariana Islands women is constrained by the small population size and limited availability of health services and data. Nonetheless, we have demonstrated that breast cancer risk prediction models with adequate discriminatory performance can be built for small populations such as in the Mariana Islands. Anthropometry, in particular waist circumference, was important for estimating breast cancer risk in this population.

Abstract:

In this essay, I reflect on the contradictions that arise from a personal experience of conflict with my father and the clash of traditional Filipino gender norms in the context of the practice of name changes within the institution of marriage and intersecting feminist critiques of patriarchy. My understanding of the Tagalog amor propio is self-love or self-pride within Filipino culture and signifies one's authority, place, and meaning in the community. As a concept of authority, amor propio encourages practices of respect toward the authority figure. In the context of the home, amor propio is attributed to the father, and members of the family ought to respect his amor propio. This essay examines my own conflicted relationship with my father and my attempts to navigate the complex terrain of amor propio, as a Filipina, feminist/peminist, dutiful daughter. Filipino immigrant families face distinct challenges within family life owing to globalization, colonialism, and racism, so I find Jane Addams's social ethics of filial relations helpful in framing the tension between individual and social claims within the specific cultural values expected of Filipina women as dutiful daughters. Addams's feminist social sensibilities in her work at Hull House were attuned to the plight of daughters and the conflicting claims of the family emergent within the crowded immigrant neighborhoods in Chicago. She was able to articulate and sympathetically understand the generational divide within immigrant families at Hull House and sought to bridge these differences within the context of the family. I reflect on her work in my own experience as a dutiful Filipina daughter.

Abstract:

This paper focuses on the Japanese Filipino children as “born out of place” babies of migrant Filipino mothers and recent young migrant workers in Japan’s labor market. I present the unique position of Japanese Filipino children and their Filipino mothers as an example of intergenerational exploitation of migrants in Japanese society. The existence of Japanese Filipino children mirrors intersectional discrimination in Japanese society; they were born as a consequence of the inequality based on gender and ethnicity between the Philippines and Japan, then they were ignored by the Japanese state as “illegitimate” children, and now they their Filipino mothers have begun to be exploited as “unskilled labor” in Japan.

Abstract:

The major purpose of the research is to examine gender differences in patterns of labor market activity, economic behavior and economic outcomes among labor migrants. While focusing on Filipina and Filipino overseas workers, the article addresses the following questions: whether and to what extent earnings and remittances of overseas workers differ by gender; and whether and to what extent the gender of overseas workers differentially affects household income in the Philippines. Data for the analysis were obtained from the Survey of Households and Children of Overseas Workers (a representative sample of households drawn in 1999–2000 from four major “labor sending” areas in the Philippines). The analysis focuses on 1,128 households with overseas workers. The findings reveal that men and women are likely to take different jobs and to migrate to different destinations. The analysis also reveals that many more women were unemployed prior to migration and that the earnings of women are, on average, lower than those of men, even after controlling for variations in occupational distributions, country of destination, and sociodemographic attributes. Contrary to popular belief, men send more money back home than do women, even when taking into consideration earnings differentials between the genders. Further analysis demonstrates that income of households with men working overseas is significantly higher than income of households with women working overseas and that this difference can be fully attributed to the earnings disparities and to differences in amount of remittances sent home by overseas workers. The results suggest that gender inequality in the global economy has significant consequences for economic inequality among households in the local economy. The findings and their meaning are evaluated and discussed in light of the household theory of labor migration.

Abstract:

Objective: To describe the social and cultural context of risk surrounding the mental health of Filipino women living in Queensland, Australia and elicit the meaning and experience of mental health and illness for these women. Methods: One hundred and thirty-nine in-depth interviews and 7 focus group discussions (FGDs) were nested within the baseline survey of the Filipina cohort of the Australian Longitudinal Study on Women's Health. Seventy-four in-depth interviews and 8 FGDs were conducted at follow-up. A semi-structured interview guide that included sections on emotional health, social support and changes guided these. A subset of responses was fully transcribed and analysed for ethnographic content and themes. Results: ‘Mental’ problems are highly stigmatized, in comparison to ‘emotional’ problems that are believed to result largely from the absence of close family ties. The loss of these ties and the transition from a collectivist to individualist society are key themes related to emotional distress in Filipinas. Conclusions: This understanding of meaning and context of mental health and its risk factors in migrants is important for informing public health and clinical practice and for the improvement of quantitative research instruments.

Abstract:

Abstract The Manila variety of Philippine Hybrid Hokkien (PHH-M) or Lánnang-uè is a contact language used by the metropolitan Manila Chinese Filipinos; it is primarily comprised of Hokkien, Tagalog/Filipino, and English elements. Approaching PHH-M as a mixed language, we investigate linguistically and socially conditioned variation in the monophthongs of PHH-M, focusing on the extent to which the vowel systems of the three source languages have converged. This analysis draws on data gathered from 34 native speakers; Pillai scores are calculated to assess the degree of merger. Contrary to certain predictions of prior work on mixed languages, PHH-M is found to have a unified, eight-vowel inventory distinct from any of its sources. Older women use more stable vowels across source languages, suggesting that they have led in the development of PHH-M as a mixed code; however, signs of change among younger women suggest either the endangerment of the code or its evolution in response to the community’s shifting identity. We contextualize our conclusions in relation to the sociohistory and language ecology of metropolitan Manila’s Chinese Filipino community.

Abstract:

I argue that for those who migrate to other countries for economic survival and political asylum, historical trauma wounds across geographical space. Using the work of David Eng and Nadine Naber on queer and feminist diasporas, I contend that homogeneous discourses of Filipino nationalism simplify and erase transphobia, homophobia, and heterosexism, giving rise to intergenerational conflict and the passing‐on of trauma among activists in the United States. Focusing on Filipina/o/x American activist organizations, I center intergenerational conflict among leaders, highlighting transphobic and homophobic struggles that commonly arise in cisgender women majority spaces. I contextualize these struggles, linking them to traumas inherited through legacies of colonialism, feudalism, imperialism, hetero‐patriarchy, capitalism, and white supremacy. I inquire: how does historical and personal trauma merge and shape activist relationships and conflict, and what are activists doing to disrupt and work through historical trauma? I advocate for a decolonizing approach for “acting out” and “working through” trauma and healing collectively. By exploring conflict in organizations shaped by dominant Filipino nationalist ideologies, I resist romantic notions of the diaspora. Revealing the ways that dominant Filipino nationalism perpetuates a simultaneous erasure of nonnormative histories and bodies and epistemological and interpersonal violence among activists, I reject homogeneous conceptions of nationalism and open up possibilities for decolonial organizing praxis.

Abstract:

This study explored how two Filipino-immigrant women for marriage in Korea construct their stories to live by in the relational contexts with their family members. The objective of this study was to understand meanings of individual participant’s lived experiences. So the research puzzle was that “How do the participants live by family-life stories with husband, children and in-law family in relational contexts?” The meanings of relational-identities emerged by the inquiry into lived experiences with their family members are as follows. Firstly, relational stories with husband: 1) A woman not invited to wife-position 2) “He always accepts what I’m doing.” Secondly, relational stories with children: 1) My children, my life-justification in Korea 2) From shameful Filipino-mom to proud Filipino-mom. Thirdly, relational stories with in-law family: Sold woman from Philippine, a poor country. This study made me rethink about Korean national identity as a multi-cultural society. I hope that Korean society pursues respect and understanding of any differences in human-beings as opposed to exclusion and discrimination.

Abstract:

Purpose The imprisoned population is increasing worldwide and is overrepresented in the HIV epidemic. The purpose of this paper is to explore the HIV vulnerability of female Filipinos who are pre-trial prisoners, as the specific needs of imprisoned women are poorly understood and fewer resources are granted to pre-trial detainees, especially in low and middle-income countries (LMICs). Design/methodology/approach This study was based on a Qualitative Descriptive Design. In total, 18 semi-structured interviews were conducted with prisoners and NGO directors. Data were analysed through Framework Analysis, using the individual, social and community categories of the Modified Socio-Ecological Model. Findings Results from this study suggest that the prison environment and management practices maximise the HIV vulnerability in the sample. This vulnerability is shaped by low HIV knowledge, combined with the existence of multiple social vulnerabilities prior to incarceration. Social implications HIV care in Filipino prisons needs urgent attention from government and international organisations, as it is a major public health and human rights concern. International goals of ending the epidemic by 2030 cannot be reached if efforts are not translated into action within this setting. Originality/value In the Philippines, few studies have addressed this issue and little is known about the conditions of Filipino prisons. This paper aims to fill a gap in literature regarding the vulnerability of imprisoned women in LMICs, which is even more limited in examining pre-trial detention.

Abstract:

This study examined predictors of life satisfaction reported by 200 Filipino managerial and professional women. Two types of correlates were considered, personal and work-situation characteristics and work experiences and work outcomes. Data were collected using anonymous questionnaires from women working in fashion or cosmetics and banking or financial services. Personal and situational characteristics were generally unrelated to self-reported life satisfaction; however, work experiences and work outcomes were consistently and strongly related to self-reported life satisfaction. Filipino managerial and professional women reporting more positive work experiences and more favorable work outcomes also reported greater life satisfaction.

Abstract:

SummaryAt a time when women's participation in developing countries and their breast-feeding practice are the objects of promotional campaigns, findings on the relationship between the two are required for formulating policies. Empirical findings from the 1973 National Demographic Survey in the Philippines strongly suggest the adverse effects of modernization on both the initiation and duration of breast-feeding. In this study a high level of education and working outside the house are found to be the modernization variables that are most effective in depressing the level and duration of breast-feeding practice, independent of the influences of other socioeconomic and demographic factors.

Abstract:

AbstractThe Bataan Death March of 1942 has entered historical consciousness as one of the ultimate measures of Japanese wartime barbarity. At a level bound up with deference to the veterans who experienced such hardship, a compelling reality emerges: Helpless Americans marched under the watchful eyes and cruel bayonets of the Japanese oppressor, and the Filipinos, in despair over the defeat of their defenders, wept in sympathy as they watched. The pattern reinforces pleasing notions of a benevolent colonial relation, the "good war" against a barbarous enemy, and loyal allies enlisted in a righteous cause. Yet thousands of men, women, and children of three nationalities and various classes participated in the complex drama that came to represent the Death March. Their complexity demands an interpretation that goes beyond the simplicity of "oppressor – victim – sympathetic observer." This article finds another story which does not replace the first but which includes American racism and colonial support for Filipino elites, and Filipino divisiveness, poverty, resentment, and Death March exploitation of American weakness and need.

Abstract:

Abstract Background: Guam population is 85.9% Asian-Pacific Islander. The cervical cancer incidence and mortality rates are higher on Guam than in the US (9.8 vs 7.4 and 7.6 vs 2.3 respectively; per 100,000 women, aged adjusted, based on 2013-2017 cases and deaths). The purpose of this study was to explore the differences in cervical cancer incidence and screening among ethnic groups on Guam. Methods: This study included 171 in situ and 146 malignant cases reported to Guam Cancer Registry from 1998-2017 (N = 317) with known age and ethnicity. The negative binomial regressions were used to compare rates adjusted for age among CHamoru (N = 189), Filipino (N = 69), and Micronesian women (N = 63) by behavior. The 2012-2018 Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System (BRFSS) data was utilized to compare the Pap testing screening behaviors among three major ethnic groups on Guam; including 1077 Filipino, 1598 CHamoru, and 257 Micronesians women. The primary outcome was self-reported Pap testing within 3 years (yes/no). The multivariable logistic regression model was used to assess the differences in Pap testing by ethnicity after adjusting for covariates. Results: The incidence rate ratio (IRR) of invasive cases was significantly higher for CHamoru and Micronesian women when compared to Filipino women (IRR=2.04, 95% CI: 1.19-3.49, and IRR=4.89, 95% CI: 2.69-8.86 respectively). For in-situ cases, only CHamoru women had significantly higher rates than Filipino women (IRR=2.17, 95% CI=1.23-3.86). Pap testing prevalence differed significantly between ethnic groups even after adjusting for age, income level, education level and marital status (p<0.001). Compared to Filipino women, CHamoru women were more likely to receive Pap test (OR=1.56, 95% CI: 1.30-1.87), and Micronesian women were less likely to be screened (OR=0.70, 95% CI: 0.52-0.94). Conclusions: There were significant differences in cervical cancer incidence and screening rates. Micronesian women had the highest invasive incidence rate but the lowest screening rates. There is a need for more outreach effort on Guam. Citation Format: Louis Dulana, Rodney Teria, Renata Bordallo, Lynne Wilkens, Grazyna Badowski.

Abstract:

This correlational study developed and tested theory to better understand health practices, including cervical cancer screening, among young Filipino women. It tested theoretical relationships postulated among (a) positive health practices, (b) cervical cancer screening, (c) social support, (d) acculturation, and (e) optimism. A convenience sample of 89 young Filipino women in an urban setting was obtained. Participants completed a demographic sheet and five instruments. Significant positive correlations were found between PHP and social support (r = .169, p <.05) and previous cervical cancer screening behavior (r = .285, p <.01) and cervical cancer screening frequency (r = .33, p <.01). Social support was not significantly related to cervical cancer screening. Previous cervical cancer screening behavior was significantly related to optimism (r = .285, p <.01) and screening frequency (r = .924, p <.01). Optimism was significantly related to positive health practices (r = .209, p <.05) and cervical cancer screening knowledge (r = .224, p <.05) but not significantly related to previous cervical cancer screening behavior or screening frequency. Findings contribute to a more comprehensive knowledge base regarding positive health practices, including cervical cancer screenings, among young Filipino women.

Abstract:

The Philippines is one of only two states in the world in which absolute divorce remains largely impossible. Through its family laws, it regulates the marriage, family life and conjugal separation of its citizens, including its migrants abroad. To find out how these family laws interact with those in the receiving country of Filipino migrants and shape their lives, the present paper examines the case of Filipino women who experienced or are undergoing divorce in the Netherlands. Drawing from semi-structured interviews and an analysis of selected divorce stories, it unveils the intertwined institutions of marriage and of divorce, the constraints but also possibilities that interacting legal norms bring in the life of Filipino women, and the way these migrants navigate such norms within their transnational social spaces. These findings contribute interesting insights into cross-border divorces in the present age of global migration.
