To what extent do women accept, adjust and challenge the
intersecting and shifting relations of cultural, political and
religious discourses that organize their (sexual) lives? Seeking to
expand the focus on changing gender roles and construction of
diasporic femininities and sexualities in migration studies,
Farahani presents an original analysis of first generation Iranian
immigrant women in Sweden. Certainly, highlighting the hybrid
experiences of Swedish Iranians, Farahani explores the tensions
that develop between the process of (self)disciplining women's
bodies and the coping tactics that women employ. Subsequently,
Gender, Sexuality, and Diaspora demonstrates how migratory
experiences impact sexuality and, conversely, how sexuality is
constitutive of migratory processes. A timely book rich with
empirical and theoretical insights on the subject of gender,
diaspora and sexuality, it will appeal to scholars and
undergraduate and postgraduate students of gender studies,
anthropology, sociology, sexuality studies, diaspora, postcolonial
and Middle Eastern studies.
