This book brings an intersectional perspective to border studies,
drawing on case studies from across the world to consider the ways
in which notably gender and race dynamics change the ways in which
people cross international borders, and how diffuse and virtual
borders impact on migrants' experiences. By bringing together 11
ethnographies, the book demonstrates the necessity for in-depth
empirical research to understand the class, gender and race
inequalities that shape contemporary borders. In doing so the
volume sheds light on how migration control produces gendered
violence at physical borders but also through the politics of
vulnerability across borders and social boundaries. It places
embodied narratives at the heart of the analysis which sheds light
on the agency and the many patterns of resistance of migrants
themselves. As such, it will appeal to scholars of migration and
diaspora studies with interests in gender.
