This book emanates from the workshop “Gender and Migration: relationships, economic resources and institutions in historical perspective (15-20 centuries)“ at the University of Cambridge in November 2018.  The book explores migration in a historical and gender perspective.  It develops an incisive dialogue between migration studies and gender studies, focusing on migrant women and men, taking into account the specificities of their migration and settlement patterns and reassesses the role and the nature of their commitment in migration dynamics.  The gender approach has been developed in parallel with an approach that emphasizes migrants’ resources, which shows migration as multifaceted and stratified phenomena, resulting from a range of entangled economic, cultural and social factors.weiterlesen
