Summary: ACKNOWLEDGMENTS I could not have written this book without the cooperation of the transna-tional family members who participated in this study. I thank all of them fortheir willingness and openness to share intimate stories about their familylife with me. My family in the Philippines, including my brother Rolf and his wifeSharon and my cousins Lourdes Jerusalem, Alan Pagunsan, and Angelo Pa-gunsan, greatly eased my transition into the field. This book could not havebeen completed without their assistance. My family in the United States,particularly my sister Rhanee, also lent much emotional support. My sisterCerissa,who co-authored an earlier version of a chapter in this volume, gaveme much intellectual stimulus in our discussions of migration and the law.My sister Celine Shimizu also provided plenty of solid advice. Various sources provided material support that enabled me to completethis project. They include the University of California President's Postdoc-toral Fellowship Program (1999-2000); the Ford Postdoctoral Fellowship forMinorities (2001-2002);the Office of the Vice Chancellor for Research andthe Dean's Office of the Division of Humanities, Arts, and Cultural Studiesat the University of California, Davis; and the Graduate School andWomen's Studies Program at the University of Wisconsin, Madison. I am grateful to the individuals and academic communities that provideda forum for me to share ideas during the data analysis and writing stages ofthis project. I received valuable feedback from lectures that I delivered atCornell University,Hunter College, and Pomona College. Conferences heldat Duke University, New York University, and the University of Arizonaprovided another forum for my ideas. For providing me with these opportu-nities to share my work, I am grateful to Lourdes Beneria, Miranda Joseph,Mario Salazar,Lok Siu,Pamela Stone,Hung Thai,Joan Tronto,and RobynWiegman. I also had the opportunity to share my work at various professionalmeetings.They include the American Anthropology meeting Chicago,Illi-
