This paper explores the experiences of contradictory mobility among Overseas Filipino Workers (OFWs) who live the dual lives in their host and home societies.
Contradictory mobility is experienced differently depending on the gender and marital status of individual workers as a function of their skill level and educational attainment. Those differences are the result of (1) the existence of a gender-specific global labor market that produces discontinuity between education, skills, or specialization and (2) the gender-specific norms and cultural expectations of the home society.
