Product Description Offers a comparative historical study of womens migration from Russia and Italy to New York at the turn of the 20th century. Taking an interdisciplinary and global perspective, the book examines the causes and consequences of womens migration, contrasting the adaptation experiences of Jewish and Italian women. Review The author provides a brilliant integration of worldsystem, migration, race and gender literature to recast the experiences of women migrants/immigrants. This is a firstrate synthesis and pathbreaking analysis of a broad literature that will have an impact across sociology, history, demography, social work, etc. This is a major contribution to worldsystem and gender studies where worldsystem researchers have for the most part ignored womens lives and for gender researchers who have ignored global economic contexts. Kathryn Ward, Southern Illinois University at CarbondaleThe book is highly readable, comprehensive, and more importantly, lively for an introduction to the experience of immigrant women at the turn of the century. It provides both general and specific information for American and European scholars from a variety of disciplines, such as womens studies, political science, history, economics, and sociology. The feminist interpretations of the issues and problems involving the international movement of female workers is a major strength of this book.
