This book delves into the intricate interplay between gender and race, exploring their profound impact on transnational migration. By encouraging a conversation among scholars who examine these issues from a gendered and racial lens, it seeks to unravel the complex relationship between these two forms of oppression and their relation to transnational mobility. The central question at the heart of this exploration is how sexism and racism articulate the experiences of transnational migrants. The authors delve into the multifaceted dynamics that shape their lives, examining how power geometries, rooted in sexism and racism, intersect and shape their experiences in migration and minority contexts.

Furthermore, the book challenges the notion of a singular intersectional approach to the study of oppressions in social interactions. Instead, it presents a diverse range of methodological approaches, showcasing the richness and complexity of the field. The contributors employ various theoretical frameworks, empirical research methods, and historical analyses to shed light on the transnational intersectionalities in migration and minority contexts.

Taken together, this volume offers a wealth of theoretical, empirical, and historical insights into ethnic, racial, gender, and migration studies. It serves as a valuable resource for scholars, researchers, and students interested in understanding the multifaceted dynamics of gender, race, and migration in the global context. The book's original publication as a special issue of Identities: Global Studies in Culture and Power further underscores its significance in advancing our understanding of these critical issues.
