Item description from seller

Hardcover, xi + 257 pages, NOT ex-library. Pencil underlining on 46 pages; two straightened corner fold. Else interior is clean and bright, free of inscriptions and stamps, firmly bound. Faint grubby marks on outer page edges. Issued without a dust jacket. -- This volume makes a decisive intervention in migration studies, moving the analysis of gender from the margins to the very center of the inquiry. Grounded in the landmark FEMIGRIN project, this work rejects the obsolete "add women and stir" approach in favor of a dynamic, multi-level framework that reveals how gender and migration are mutually constituted. Using Belgium as its laboratory, the study systematically unfolds from a broad quantitative mapping of female migrant populations and their labor market precarity (Chapters 2 & 3) to a series of rich, granular qualitative case studies. By exploring the distinct "migration careers" of women from Russia, Ukraine, the Philippines, Latin America, Romania, and Nigeria (Chapters 4-8), the analysis reveals them not as passive subjects of structural forces, but as active agents who navigate, negotiate, and reshape gender relations within the family, community, and workplace. The book's intellectual core is its powerful transversal synthesis (Chapter 9), which cuts across national origins to distill the universal dynamics of how migration itself becomes a catalyst for profound social change. Essential reading for scholars and policymakers in sociology, gender studies, and public policy, this book provides both a replicable methodological model and indispensable insights into the lived realities of migrant women, offering a crucial foundation for more equitable and effective integration policy.
