New English Paperback. Roy. 8vo. (23 x 16 cm). In English. 304 p. Emancipation in exile: Perspectives on the empowerment of migrant women. Whereas labour migration had primarily been a male phenomenon throughout history, large numbers of women began to migrate from the South in order to find work in the North of Europe in the 1970's. In the case of Turkey, women of rural or small town background who had never been employed, who were mentally unprepared, and to some degree unwilling to leave their homes, were suddenly urged by their mail relatives to take up industrial or service jobs in foreign countries. By 1974 there were almost three times as many Turkish women working in Germany compared to the number of women in Turkish industry.At that time, Professor Nermin Abadan Unat raised a question on the potential influence that this migration could have on the emancipation or pseudoemancipation- of these women who were leaving Turkey to become industrial workers abroad. Four decades later, this volume analyses how social, political and religious changes in the home and host countries of the immigrant women, influenced the predicted processes of change. Has there been a significant increase in individual autonomy, self-determination and gender equality? Or has a hasty modernization created a false climate of liberation or "pseudo-emancipation", without significantly increasing self-determination and independence? How has the very concepts of "emancipation" and "migration" evolved in the meantime? How do the women themselves perceive their own situation? Nineteen experts in social science, and migration and gender studies have contributed to this study of the processes of emancipation and the pathways to empowerment of women who thought they were leaving temporarily but ended up spending their lives in exile.

Première édition in-12, parue un an après l'édition originale chez le même éditeur. Alexandre Dumas aurait composé ces pseudo-Mémoires de Catherine-Charlotte de Gramont (1639-1678) en collaboration avec la comtesse Dash. Ces "Mémoires" sont en fait une biographie romancée de l’épouse de Louis Ier de Monaco. Catherine et son époux furent appelés à la cour de France. La princesse devint surintendante de la maison d'Henriette d'Angleterre, belle-sœur de Louis XIV. Sa grande beauté lui attira de nombreux courtisans. La cour la surnomma "le Torrent" et Mme de Sévigné la décrit comme "vorace de plaisirs". Elle mena une vie aventureuse, partagée entre les intrigues de la cour de Louis XIV avec lequel elle entretint une relation en 1665, son amour pour le duc de Lauzun et ses séjours à Monaco. Quelques petites épidermures. Bon exemplaire.
