Gender and Family Among Transnational Professionals de Anne Coles

Gender and Family Among Transnational Professionals: Routledge International Studies of Women and Place

Editat de Anne Coles, Anne-Meike Fechter
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 15 aug 2011
While interest in migration flows is ever-growing, this has mostly concentrated on disadvantaged migrants moving from developing to Western industrialised countries. In contrast, Euro-American mobile professionals are only now becoming an emergent research topic. Similarly, debates on the connections between gender and migration rarely consider these kind of migrants. This volume fills these gaps by investigating impact of relocation on gender and family relations among today’s transnational professionals.
