| الملخص: | <p dir="ltr">This chapter attempts to understand the role of networks in facilitating migration to Gulf countries from Punjab and the role of credit/debt to cover cost of migration. Theoretically, the study is based on an ethnographic and narrative approach. The ethnographic approach includes the nature of migration, place of migration, network relations, years of migration, and occupation of the migrants. The narrative approach is used to understand and analyze channels of migration and return migration. The paper will highlight the role of social networks in discovering Gulf nations with employment opportunities and various types of debt used to cover migration’s costs.</p><h2 dir="ltr">Other Information</h2><p dir="ltr">Published in: Social Change and Transformation in the Gulf Region<br>License: <a href="https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0" target="_blank">https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0</a><br>See chapter on publisher's website: <a href="https://dx.doi.org/10.1007/978-981-19-7796-1_13" target="_blank">https://dx.doi.org/10.1007/978-981-19-7796-1_13</a></p> |
