| Description: |
Documents the phenomenon of feminised migration by analysing accounts of the lives of women migrants in the 'host' countries. Based on more than 100 interviews with women migrants from Hungary and Bulgaria and with 'host' women in Italy and the Netherlands, this book includes theoretical debates on migration and subjectivity, and more. |
| Synopsis: |
Political transition in the past decade has been related to building a new European social, political and cultural environment that transgresses older divisions between the European West and East. The migration of women from East to West and the re-arrangement of gender relations in Europe are indicative of a wide range of changes that are related to the modification of political and social practices and to understandings of the private and public sphere. This volume documents the contemporary phenomenon of feminised migration by analysing rich accounts of the lives of women migrants and the ways in which the latter are perceived in the 'host' countries. Based on more than 100 interviews with women migrants from Hungary and Bulgaria and with 'host' women in Italy and the Netherlands, it also engages in theoretical debates on migration and subjectivity, juridical approaches to migration and migration policy, and on-going public discussions of new visions of Europe. |
