许多发达国家面临着老龄化加剧和生育率下降之间的相互关系，并面临着围绕护理、生殖和妇女权利的挑战、风险和政策辩论。本文展示了跨境婚姻的特殊案例和台湾移民妻子的生活，旨在确定她们的社会需求，从而确定她们的社会包容前景。它考虑了这些移民妻子在多大程度上成功实现了自己原生家庭的梦想和/或满足了“姻亲”家庭的生育需求。讨论了妇女的社会和生育角色、性别歧视以及移民妻子未实现的权利和“部分公民身份”等问题。作者认为，移民妻子承担全部责任，但只拥有部分公民身份。配偶担保制度的意识形态使入籍申请变得极其困难，不仅增加了移民妇女的脆弱性，而且侵犯了她们的人权。
The interrelationship between increased ageing and declining fertility is facing many developed countries with challenges, risks and policy debates around care, reproduction and women's rights. This article demonstrates the special case of cross-border marriages and the lives of immigrant wives in Taiwan, with a view to identifying their social needs and hence their prospects for social inclusion. It considers the extent to which these immigrant wives have managed to fulfil the dreams of their own native families and/or satisfy the reproductive demands of their ‘in-law’ families. Issues of women's social and reproductive role, gender discrimination and the unfulfilled rights and ‘partial citizenship’ of immigrant wives are discussed. The author argues that immigrant wives carry full responsibility but possess only partial citizenship. The ideology of the spousal sponsorship regime, which makes the application for naturalization extremely difficult, not only increases the vulnerability of immigrant women but violates their human rights.
