Focusing on Senegalese migrants in Europe and their left-behind wives, this multi-sited ethnography explores the impacts of global neoliberal economic policies on families in the global south. It delves into how migration reshapes concepts of intimacy, gender, and class, revealing the complex dynamics and emotional costs associated with these changes. Through detailed accounts, Hannaford highlights the transformative effects of migration on familial relationships and social structures.
