Know about the book -

Gender and Migration is written by Caroline Sweetman and published by Oxfam. It's available with International Standard Book Number or ISBN identification 085598399X (ISBN 10) and 9780855983994 (ISBN 13).

The articles in this collection explore the vast array of different reasons for women and men moving within and outside their native countries, whether it be for employment, upon marriage, or in the midst of conflict. The authors, who include Uma Kothari and Emma Crewe, Ben Rogaly and Alex Jones, stress the importance of seeing an individual migrant in her or his context as a member of a social network, spanning different locations. Understanding these links means that migration can be seen as part of a wider strategy for making a living.
