Description

Product Description Gendering Migration demonstrates the significance of studying migration through the lens of gender and ethnicity and the contribution this perspective makes to migration histories. Through a consideration of the impact of migration on men and masculine identities as well as women and feminine identities, it extends our understanding of questions of gender and migration, focusing on the history of migration to Britain after the Second World War. The volume draws on oral narratives as well as documentary and archival research to demonstrate the important role played by gender and ethnicity, both in ideas and images of migrants and in migrants' own experiences. The contributors consider a range of migrant and refugee groups who came to Britain in the twentieth century: Caribbean, East-African Asian, German, Greek, Irish, Kurdish, Pakistani, Polish and Spanish. The fresh interpretations offered here make this an important new book for scholars and students of migration, ethnicity, gender and modern British history. Review 'Based on a series of fascinating case studies, this book makes a major contribution to the mainstreaming of gender - both male and female - into the study of migration, race and ethnicity. Focusing on both well-known and lesser-known migrant groups who have arrived in Britain since the war, the volume enriches our understanding of the gendered texture of Britain's so-called multicultural society.' Russell King, University of Sussex, UK 'This survey makes a case for the significance of studying trends related to gender and ethnicity within studies of migration. The collection of essays therein examine the history of migration in post World War Two Britain and, in so doing, draw on a range of sources, from archival research to interviews with migrants. In sum, the essays explore how the intersection of gender and ethnicity affects both the ways in which recent migrants to Britain have been represented as well as how migrants themselves construe their varied identities and experiences.' Ethnicity and Race in Changing World: A Review Journal About the Author Louise Ryan is Deputy Head of the Social Policy Research Centre and Senior Research Fellow at Middlesex University, UK. Wendy Webster is Professor of Contemporary British History at the University of Central Lancashire, UK.
