In this volume, European and US-based researchers look at the connection between migration and domestic work on an empirical and theoretical level. The book asks why the re-introduction of domestic workers in European households has become so popular, thus challenging gender theories. This is a timely book of interest to academics and students in the fields of migration, gender and European studies.

Inhaltsangabe
Chapter 1 Introduction: Migrant Domestic Workers in Europe, Helma Lutz; Part 1 Domestic Work - Business as Usual?; Chapter 2 The Intersection of Childcare Regimes and Migration Regimes: A Three-Country Study, Fiona Williams, Anna Gavanas; Chapter 3 Migrations and the Restructuring of the Welfare State in Italy: Change and Continuity in the Domestic Work Sector, Francesca Scrinzi; Chapter 4 When Home Becomes a Workplace: Domestic Work as an Ordinary Job in Germany? 1 This Chapter was originally written together with Susanne Schwalgin, whom I thank for her Participation in this research project. I also thank Gul Ozyegin for her constructive comments., Helma Lutz; Chapter 5 Perceptions of Work in Albanian Immigrants' Testimonies and the Structure of Domestic Work in Greece, Pothiti Hantzaroula; Part 2 Transnational Migration Spaces: Policies, Families and Household Management; Chapter 6. While speaking of international migration I do not consider migrations between different national areas of the same state (for instance between Hungary and Austria within the Habsburg monarchy). Conversely, I do include among inter-continental migrations those to the colonies. The main hypothesis of this Chapter - that until about the mid-nineteenth century the more common pattern of international and inter-continental servant migration was from richer to poorer countries, while thereafter the direction of the flows was increasingly from poorer to richer ones - is based on the analysis of large amounts of quantitative data, which I could not present in this Chapter due to the audience the book is addressing and lack of space., Raffaella Sarti; Chapter 7 Perpetually Foreign: Filipina Migrant Domestic Workers in Rome 1 Excerpts from this Chapter originally appeared in Servants of Globalization: Women, Migration, and Domestic Work (2001). Stanford, CA: Stanford University Press., Rhacel Salazar Parreñas; Chapter 8 Domestic Work and Transnational Care Chains in Spain, Angeles Escriva, Emmeline Skinner; Chapter 9 Contingencies Among Households: Gendered Division of Labour and Transnational Household Organization - The Case of Ukrainians in Austria, Bettina Haidinger; Part 3 States and Markets: Migration Regimes and Strategies; Chapter 10 Risk and Risk Strategies in Migration: Ukrainian Domestic Workers in Poland, Marta Kindler; Chapter 11 Between Intimacy and Alienage: The Legal Construction of Domestic and Carework in the Welfare State, Guy Mundlak, Hila Shamir; Chapter 12 Being Illegal in Europe: Strategies and Policies for Fairer Treatment of Migrant Domestic Workers, Norbert Cyrus; Chapter 13; Conclusion: Domestic Work, Migration and the New Gender Order in Contemporary Europe 1 Gul Ozyegin would like to thank the Netherlands Institute for Advanced Study in the Humanities and Social Sciences for the Institute's financial and research support., Gul Ozyegin, Pierette Hondagneu-Sotelo;
