Marriage, Gender and Refugee Migration

"Attentively observed and provocatively argued, this book explores the dynamic inter-relationship between culture, religion, ethnicity, and gender, and how migration remakes people’s understandings of their relationships. It is not only brilliant but beautiful too, capturing the creativity in struggles to craft places in the world. Truly inspirational reading."

~Bridget Anderson, co-editor of Citizenship and Its Others

“In this sensitively-described and expertly analysed ethnography of marriage among Somalis in Bristol, Natasha Carver shows how migration has unsettled Somali cultural norms of womanhood and masculinity. Marriage, Gender and Refugee Migration is an exemplary transnational sociology of how identities are constituted."

~Seán McLoughlin, co-editor of Diasporas: Concepts, Intersections, Identities

"An exciting insight into marriage, gender, and refugee migration."
