| Beschreibung: | |
| Immigrant women to Western Europe, especially those originating from Islamic countries, have been turned into icons of cultural difference by the general discourse on immigration. They are not recognized as actors in a changing society, just as society's changes through immigrants tend to be denied. This obscures the work and the accomplishments of women in the course of their immigration. Focusing on a biographical interview with a Turkish woman who came to Germany as a "guest worker" in 1972, the social history of this labour migration is outlined. Instances of "biographical work" in the interview are discussed, pointing out the transformation potential of immigrant women's biographies. | |
