Returns to (non)retirement: Ageing migrant domestic workers linking pasts and futures

This chapter examines their plans and imaginaries of retirement, and how new kinds of work and socially reproductive labour continue even after ‘retiring’ from work abroad. It is part of a volume on the Anthropology of Retirement, which considers life beyond retirement in a wide range of contexts.
