This book provides a twofold critique of mainstream political theory, drawing on feminisms to develop a more comprehensive understanding of migration. Grounded in both a critical cosmopolitan approach and the ethics and politics of care, the book shows what a feminist approach to migration would look like. The author focuses on migrants' perspectives and places ideas around dispossession and exclusion at the centre of the argument. The book is a valuable resource for scholars and practitioners who seek to understand the relationship between migration and gendered human experiences.

Synthesises liberal, republican, realist and feminist political theories Engages with debates around open and closed borders, human rights and host countries' perspectives Builds on contemporary critical approaches to migration
