Transnational Migration: Bringing gender In
Author(s)Pessar, Patricia R.; Mahler, Sarah J.
AbstractThis article aims to bring gender into an even tighter transnational migration focus by broadening and deepening our original framework of “gender geographies of power” linking it more directly to existing and emerging scholarship. The authors examine and highlight previously neglected areas such as the role of the state and the social imaginary in gendering transnational processes and experiences. The authors also identify topics that remain under-appreciated, under-researched, and/or under-theorized. Finally, we initiate a discussion of how a gendered analysis of transnational migration can help bridge this particular research to other gendered transnational processes under study that do not privilege migration.
