ISBN: 9781904385646 / Angielski / Miękka / 288 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This book examines immigration law from a gender perspective.

In fact, the classical feminist themes of patriarchy, the gendered division of labour and sexual violence are still being played out at the heart of Europe's societies, involving both citizens and migrants.

This new "joint governance" approach reduces the injustice between minority groups and society, while enhancing justice within them. This book will interest...
