- Description
- Feminist analysis of the armed conflict and occupation in Cyprus and argues for a multi-communal feminist movement. She notes that contemporary Cypriot women's 'liberation'' from the home is often due to female migrant domestic workers: Cyprus became a major migrant destination after its entry into the EU.The experiences of women from Greek, Turkish, Armenian, Maronite and Latin communities and migrant domestic workers are examined in the context of ethno-national conflict and divisions, economic inequality, nationalism, militarism and border control.
