This book looks at migration and selects moments in time, past and present, through the experience of women. The book maps out a set of preliminary but common understandings on issues of importance to migrant women and their advocates, and further clarify the experience of women across several key themes: labour migration, migrant remittances, trafficking, immigration and identification - all of which are key areas of migration studies. It will also put forward issues such as rape and female circumcision, key issues of importance to the integration of both forced migrants and of women who migrate into new cultural norms.
