Produktbeschreibung

International labour migration of Kerala has had several salutary effects on the household concerned. One of the basic improvements has been in the field of education. The present exercise endeavours to examine, on the basis of empirical evidence, the educational development in a migration intensive area of Kerala, the Malappuram district. The upward mobility on the educational front taking place among Muslim women in the study area is found to be highly significant and the most important causal factor for the change has been the going on emigration and its repercussions in the community. The Malappuram seems to call into question the general contention that it is the educational status of the parents that shape the educational fortunes of their children.The present study endeavours to examine, on the basis of empirical evidence, the educational mobility of Muslim women in a migration intensive area of Kerala, the Malappuram district. The study focuses to assess the impact of Gulf migration and resultant remittances to Malappuram over the past three decades on women's educational mobility, particularly among the Muslim community.
