This timely guide provides a current, comprehensive and theoretically-grounded coverage of the state of the field of expatriate research.

Following the COVID-19 pandemic expatriates have been affected by the shifting nature and extent of expatriation. Rather than looking at expatriation as the assignment, leading experts analyse the experiences of expatriates, exploring the agency of expatriates themselves. The chapters discuss a wide range of experiences including those of government, religious and humanitarian expatriates, ethnically and culturally diverse expatriates, neurodivergent expatriates, and other diverse groups of expatriates as well as addressing the health, safety and wellbeing, flexible global work arrangements, and management and support for those living abroad. The guide also outlines future research directions in the field, considering issues such as privilege, structural barriers, and the need for greater inclusivity and representation.

Scholars and students of human resource management and international business will greatly benefit from this authoritative guide. Highly relevant and engaging, it is also an essential resource for practitioners and consultants in international human resource management.
