Abstract
Recent studies on international migrations and human mobility show that migrant and refugee women build an intersectional consciousness at the global level through storytelling and rewriting actions, which contributes to the reconceptualisation of unconventional forms of women’s participation in the construction of decentralized knowledge, in opposition to dominant cultures. This book aims to explore alternative and reflexive forms of knowledge production through migrant women’s literary production and their positioning in the field of human mobility. It explores the boundaries of the autobiographical genre through the literary production and life-histories in migrant women’s lives.
