CZEGO NIE DOWIEMY SIĘ O GLOBALNEJ REWOLUCJI PŁCI BEZ BADANIA RELIGII W ŻYCIU MIGRANTÓW

Abstract

Since the late 1980s there has been a growing interest in women’s migration, which led to the emergence of intersectional analysis as a main focus of gendered studies of mobility. However, intersectional research of global migration processes rarely includes the analysis of religion in the experience of migrants, not asking about the possible role of religion in the gender revolution. Studies focus primarily (and often only) on the gendered division of care work, new forms of maintaining transnational families, and caring for children from abroad. In this article I present a preliminary overview of studies, which analyze the intersection of migration, gender, care work, and religion. I show that the inclusion of religion in the analysis helps to answer in a more complex way, how the shifts in gender roles, contracts, and the public-private division happen. Keywords:
