These platforms have created a new communicative environment, which the authors call 'polymedia'. This book draws on a long-term ethnographic study of prolonged separation between transnational Filipino migrant mothers in the UK and their left-behind children in the Philippines. It is unique in the way it provides firstly a theory of the new experience of media itself, as polymedia. This is complemented by a theory of relationships based on an analysis of mother-child communication. The authors seek to go beyond both media studies and anthropology to construct a new theory of mediated relationships that combines findings from both disciplines and has considerable importance for the social sciences more generally."--Publisher's description. 606 $aForeign workers, Philippine$xFamily relationships$zGreat Britain 606 $aWomen foreign workers$xFamily relationships$zGreat Britain 606 $aChildren of foreign workers$xFamily relationships$zPhilippines 606 $aCommunication in families$zPhilippines 606 $aInterpersonal communication$xTechnological innovations$xSocial aspects$zPhilippines 606 $aCommunication, International$xTechnological innovations$xSocial aspects$zPhilippines 615 0$aForeign workers, Philippine$xFamily relationships 615 0$aWomen foreign workers$xFamily relationships 615 0$aChildren of foreign workers$xFamily relationships 615 0$aCommunication in families 615 0$aInterpersonal communication$xTechnological innovations$xSocial aspects 615 0$aCommunication, International$xTechnological innovations$xSocial aspects 676 $a331.40941 700 $aMadianou$b Mirca.$01644137 701 $aMiller$b Daniel$f1954-$0118348 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910819145103321 996 $aMigration and new media$93989818 997 $aUNINA
