This book examines the relationship between migration,
diversification and inequality in Aotearoa/New Zealand. The authors
advance a view of migration as a diversifying force, arguing that
it is necessary to grapple with the intersection of group
identities, state policy and economic opportunities as part of the
formation of inequalities that have deep historical legacies and
substantial future implications. Exploring evidence for inequality
amongst migrant populations, the book also addresses the role of
multicultural politics and migration policy in entrenching
inequalities, and the consequences of migrant inequalities for
political participation, youth development and urban life.
Straddling disciplines and continents, Feminist Futures interweaves
scholarship and social activism to explore the evolving position of
women in the South. Working at the intersection of cultural
studies, critical development studies and feminist theory, the
book's contributors articulate a radical and innovative framework
for understanding the linkages between women, culture and
development, applying it to issues ranging from sexuality and the
gendered body to the environment, technology and the cultural
politics of representation. This revised and updated edition brings
together leading academics, as well as a new generation of
activists and scholars, to provide a fresh perspective on the ways
in which women in the South are transforming our understanding of
development.
