Indian Immigrant Women and Work

Viac o knihe

Focusing on the experiences of independent Indian women who have migrated to the US, this book delves into their work trajectories and assimilation processes. It highlights the often-overlooked narratives of these women against the backdrop of macro trends in immigration, work, and feminism. By utilizing historical records, unpublished gender-disaggregated data, and personal interviews, the authors reveal the significant and longstanding history of independent migration among Indian women, challenging the perception that this phenomenon is predominantly male-driven.
