Gender and Immigration (Hardcover)

This work explores the varied and complex ways in which women in a variety of occupational and social categories experience international migration. The chapters are concerned primarily with the question of whether international migration provides women with opportunities for liberating themselves from subordinate gender roles in their countries of origin. At the same time, the authors discuss whether migrant women face both traditional and new forms of subordination and discrimination in their host societies.
