Abstract
AbstractHome is a space that is marked by gendered roles and identities. This chapter provides an overview of some key feminist thinking on home and how this is reflected and used in studies that focus on gender in migration studies. The chapter reflects on men and women’s home-making practices after migration, and the implications both for those who move onwards and those who stay put. In this chapter, while there is a focus on migrant women, a new line of thinking on domestic migrant masculinities is presented which discusses how varied gender roles in migration impact the space and politics of home for migrant families. Finally, the chapter reflects on how migrants’ images of future homes are entangled with gendered power relations of home.
