Gendered Journeys: Women, Migration and Feminist Psychology is a comprehensive exploration of the intersection of gender, migration, and psychology. The book delves into the experiences of women who have migrated to different countries, examining the unique challenges and opportunities they face as they navigate new cultural, social, and economic landscapes.
Through a feminist lens, the authors analyze the ways in which gender shapes the migration process, influencing women’s decision-making, experiences of discrimination, and access to resources. The book also highlights the resilience and agency of migrant women, showcasing their ability to challenge traditional gender norms and create new identities in their host countries.
In addition to personal narratives and case studies, Gendered Journeys also offers a critical analysis of existing research on women’s migration, highlighting gaps in knowledge and suggesting new directions for future studies. The book ultimately aims to contribute to a more nuanced understanding of the complex relationship between gender, migration, and psychology, and to advocate for policies and practices that support the well-being and empowerment of migrant women.
