review: Editorial Reviews Review "This rich book has two integrative virtues. It uses a materialist, feminist perspective that integrates production and reproduction. And it tells a historical story of transformation, growth, decline of migration, in a narrative that integrates Mexico and the United States. Scholars will value these sophisticated perspectives." ― Josiah Heyman , University of Texas at El Paso, USA "With its rich interplay of theory and ethnographic detail, Class, Gender and Migration brings life and analytical rigour to the historical processes of economic restructuring that shape migrants’ lives. Turning a penetrating gender and class lens on the linked experiences of Mexican migrants in the US and in Mexico, and the back and forth between these, it beautifully demonstrates how careful studies of migration can reveal the workings of 21st century capitalism." ― Belinda Leach , University of Guelph, Canada "This rich book has two integrative virtues.
