Migration and the Transnational Family: Transnational Households, Care and the Right to Family Life
La Chaire Oppenheimer Chair en droit international public et le Centre sur les droits de la personne et le pluralisme juridique vous convient à une présentation par Edit Frenyó, boursière Steinberg, qui parlera de questions de droit de la famille dans un contexte transnational, dans le cadre de la migration et de la mobilité au sein de l'Union Européenne.
Résumé
[En anglais seulement] Edit Frenyó's presentation will focus on reconsidering inherited assumptions about parenthood, household and the concept of care during times of prolonged parent-child separation. The migration of Central and Eastern European parents in the domestic care sector of Europe has allowed for the development of a unique system of transnational welfare between home and host societies. Across the globe, transnational family life takes place at the intersection of various legal, policy and market regimes, requiring that the boundaries of family law and migration law be redrawn.
Examining this issue in the European sphere allows for a unique perspective as EU regulation and jurisprudence attempts to balance competing interests of the right to free movement and the right to family life. Going forward the framework developed in the dissertation allows for much needed comparative analysis with transnational family life outside of the transnational space of the European Union. Further exploration of the lived experience of mobile families within in and beyond the EU will carry valuable lessons and lead to useful analytical approaches for both theory and practice.
