Violence Against Women and Ethnicity: Commonalities and Differences Across Europe

This book draws together both theory and practice on minority/migrant women and gendered violence. The interplay of gender, ethnicity, religion, class, generation, and sexuality in shaping the lives, experiences, and choices of minority/migrant women affected by violence has not always been adequately theorized within much of the existing writing. Feminist theory - especially the insights provided by the concept of 'intersectionality' - are central to the editors' conceptual frameworks.
