It reveals how the marriage migrants navigate the intricacies and trajectories of their marriages with Japanese people while living in Japan. Seen from the lens of 'gendered geographies of power', the book explores how state-level politics and policies towards marriage, migration, and gender affect the personal power politics in operation within the relationships of these international couples. Overall, the book discusses how ethnic identity intersects with gender in the negotiation of spaces and power relations between and amongst couples; and the role states and structural inequalities play in these processes, resulting in a reconfiguration of our notions of what international marriages are and how powerful gender and the state are in understanding the power relations in these unions"-- $c Provided by publisher. 650 0 $a Intercountry marriage $z Japan. 650 0 $a Foreign spouses $z Japan. 650 0 $a Interracial couples $z Japan. 651 0 $a Japan $x Social policy. 650 7 $a Foreign spouses. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01201906 650 7 $a Intercountry marriage. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00976075 650 7 $a Interracial couples. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst02016939 650 7 $a Social policy. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01122738 651 7 $a Japan. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01204082 700 1 $a Balgoa, Nelia G., $e author. 700 1 $a Yamamoto, Beverley, $e author. 830 0 $a Politics of marriage and gender: global issues in local contexts. 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20231018020334.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=857AA68E8FC011ECBA4AA6A62FECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
