Synopsis:

The book investigates transnational migration and mobility of women from and within Central-Eastern European countries. It looks at women’s practices and experiences mostly in the service sector where they are in demand as substitutes in stereotypically „women’s work“. The book combines different perspectives: sociological and anthropological studies, comparative policy analysis and historical and statistical evidence and provides new insights into current theoretical debates in migration and gender studies.

About the Author: Sabine Hess is professor of Cultural Anthropology/European Ethnology at the University of Göttingen since 2011. She specializes in migration and border studies focusing on forms of transnationalisation and Europeanisation with a specific interest in the external border region in South-Eastern Europe. She is a founding member of the European interdisciplinary »Network on critical migration and border studies« (kritnet) and member of the editorial board of »movements. Journal on Critical Border and Migration Regime Studies«.
