Based in Turin, Italy, this dissertation examines how the job of home eldercare assistant, an unexplored subset of domestic work, is shaped by the convergence of three major global trends: changes in labor market participation, aging, and immigration. Italy, with its negative growth rate and inadequate state policies to respond to a progressively older population, provides an important case study for understanding the complexities of eldercare. Increasingly, Italian families are no longer able or willing to offer assistance to the elderly. They prefer to hire eldercare assistants, and immigrant women, seldom men, of various nationalities increasingly fill these positions.
