Le nouvel ordre économique néolibéral modifie la division internationale du travail, ce qui entraîne un accroissement des populations migrantes de travailleurs et de travailleuses. Actuellement, une personne sur dix dans les régions développées est migrante, et les femmes représentent la moitié de ce nombre. Longtemps, pourtant, la figure du migrant a été représentée comme masculine, en raison des représentations stéréotypées ou erronées du rôle et de la place des femmes et des hommes dans les sociétés, et les recherches ou programmes relatifs aux migrants ont ignoré la composante féminine des migrations. Or, les femmes migrent bien, elles aussi. Une grande partie des femmes migrantes – même qualifiées – travaillent dans le secteur des soins ou des emplois domestiques. Le transfert international des soins et de l’attention aux autres (care) – sorte de nouvelle matière première extraite des pays du Sud pour être consommée dans les pays riches – est un nouvel échange inégal. Les espaces où se réalise le travail des migrantes restent souvent invisibles, lieus de peu de droits. Si les discriminations et les abus sont à dénoncer, l’image de victime accolée aux migrantes et cependant loin de convenir. La trajectoire migratoire demande pugnacité et courage. Et nous pouvons nous demander s’il ne s’agit pas du départ des personnes les plus combatives de la société… Les identités se transforment dans l’expérience de la migration : comme le dit l’une d’elles, « je ne suis plus celle que j’ai laissée derrière moi ». Des réseaux transnationaux se construisent, accompagnés d’une circulation d’idées, de nouvelles représentations, de projets, de flux financiers. En 2002, les revenus du travail des migrants atteignaient 73 milliards de dollars, un montant plus élevé que celui de l’aide internationale au développement. Un nouvel ordre colonial s’instaure avec la nouvelle division internationale du travail. Mais les migrations des femmes et des hommes à travers les pratiques sociales…

This open access short reader offers a critical review of the debates on the transformation of migration and gendered mobilities primarily in Europe, though also engaging in wider theoretical insights. Building on empirical case studies and grounded in an analytical framework that incorporates both men and women, masculinities, sexualities and wider intersectional insights, this reader provides an accessible overview of conceptual developments and methodological shifts and their implications for a gendered understanding of migration in the past 30 years. It explores different and emerging approaches in major areas, such as: gendered labour markets across diverse sectors beyond domestic and care work to include skilled sectors of social reproduction; the significance of families in migration and transnational families; displacement, asylum and refugees and the incorporation of gender and sexuality in asylum determination; academic critiques and gendered discourses concerning integration often with the focus on Muslim women. The reader concludes with considerations of the potential impact of three notable developments on gendered migrations and mobilities: Black Lives Matter, Brexit and COVID-19. As such, it is a valuable resource for students, academics, policy makers, and practitioners.

How do second-generation migrant women connect with their cultural heritage when ethnic ties have been weak or absent for most of their lives? Family, Story and Identity presents the life stories of twenty women of various ethnicities, analysis of published autobiographies, as well as autoethnographic accounts of the author's experiences, to show how stories connect adult children of immigrants with their cultural heritage. The collecting of stories comes in various forms and can include brief visits to ancestral homelands, documenting family histories and genealogies, and gathering stories, folktales, and recipes. Senem Mallman found that, as adults, many children of immigrants actively seek out family histories and stories in order to connect with their cultural heritage and with their parents, and to pass this knowledge on to their own children. She argues that seeking out stories enables the second-generation to find a place within their family narrative. This pursuit of stories leads them toward developing new perspectives about their culture, family and life in Australia, and new ways of living with their cultural ambivalence.--
