This book by Rubya Mehdi explores the experiences of migrant single mothers in Denmark, particularly focusing on ten Pakistani women who moved from collectivist cultures to individualist societies in Europe from the 1960s to the 1980s. It examines how these women navigate cultural differences, family structures, and legal frameworks. The study highlights the transition from collectivism to individualism, revealing how these women blend both cultural paradigms in areas such as marriage, divorce, employment, and child-rearing. The book aims to foster understanding of gender roles and diversity within European contexts, and is intended for scholars interested in migration, gender studies, and social change.
