- Description
- Gender inequality persists in most countries. This collection highlights patterns of behaviour and gender relations and locates women at the centre of a dialogue and presents key interventions in gender and race matters. For the contributors, gender serves as an analytical framework and covers the experiences of women in different global settings related to education, political activism, corporeal violence, identity, sexuality, and poverty. The use of poetry and literature provides a powerful voice for women against exclusion and recognises their contribution to society.

- Description
- This book covers all of Europe, with a notable focus on Eastern Europe.

- Description
- De auteurs in deze bundel hebben met elkaar gemeen dat ze het continent van hun (voor)ouders hebben moeten verlaten en dat hun identiteit hybride is. Dat maakt de verhalen – fictie én non-fictie – van deze schrijvers gelaagd en grenzeloos. De auteurs gaan een dialoog aan met de Afrikaanse erfenis en hun nieuwe thuis in Nederland of België.

- Description
- As globalization intensifies, people’s mobility is increasingly conditioned by intimacy, ranging from love, desire, and sexual liaisons to broader family, kinship, and conjugal matters. This book explores the entanglement of mobility and intimacy in various configurations throughout the world. It argues that rather than being distinct and unrelated phenomena, intimacy-related mobilities constitute variations of cross-border movements shaped by issues of gender, kinship, race, and sexuality, as well as local and global powers and border restrictions in a disparate world.

- Description
- This collection explores family relations in two types of 'migrant families' in Europe: mixed families and transnational families. Based on qualitative fieldwork and surveys, the contributors analyse gender and intergenerational relations from a variety of standpoints and migratory flows. In their examination of family life in a migratory context, the authors develop theoretical approaches from the social sciences that go beyond migration studies, such as intersectionality, the solidarity paradigm, care circulation, reflexive modernization and gender convergence theory.

- Description
- This volume traces the different ways in which Javanese migrants and migrant communities are connected in their host society and with Java as a real or imagined authoritative source of norms, values and loyalties. The labour element dominates the Indonesian overseas experience. The book also shows how ethnicity, class, gender, religion and hierarchy have shaped the dynamics of diasporic communities. The chapters pay particular attention to gender as, since the 1960s, women for the first time have formed the majority of international migrants, domestic work being the largest category of transnational work.

- Description
- Migreren vanuit niet-westerse landen brengt bagage met zich mee: ontworteling, heimwee, trauma, en het eeuwig onbereikbare er echt bij willen horen. De mensen over wie vaak wordt gedebatteerd en gesproken, komen nu zelf aan het woord, op hun manier, in hun eigen stijl, en in hun eigen taal. Ze laten zien hoe het is om structureel, van generatie op generatie de realiteit van 'de Ander' te moeten leven.
