Nepali Migrant Women Resistance and Survival in America: Gender and Globalization In this groundbreaking and timely book, Hamal Gurung gives voice to the growing number of Nepali women who migrate to the United States to work in the informal economy. Through the stories of thirty-five college-educated and middle-class women, Gurung challenges traditional portrayals of Third World women as victims of low-wage employment, instead highlighting their strategic decisions to accept downwardly mobile positions in order to earn more income and achieve greater agency in both their home countries and diasporic communities in the US. These women are not only investing in themselves and their families but also building transnational communities through formal participation in NGOs and informal networks of migrant workers. The book provides a detailed account of the lives of Nepali migrant women, showcasing the profound and far-reaching effects of their civic, economic, and political engagement, as well as their resilience in the face of gendered, racialized, and nationalist discrimination. The author documents the ways in which these women resist and survive in a new country, adapting to changing circumstances and creating new opportunities for themselves and their communities.
Непальские женщины-мигранты Сопротивление и выживание в Америке: гендер и глобализация В этой новаторской и своевременной книге Хамаль Гурунг дает голос растущему числу непальских женщин, которые мигрируют в Соединенные Штаты для работы в неформальной экономике. Рассказывая истории тридцати пяти женщин с высшим образованием и среднего класса, Гурунг бросает вызов традиционным представлениям о женщинах из стран третьего мира как о жертвах низкооплачиваемой занятости, вместо этого подчеркивая их стратегические решения принять нисходяще мобильные должности, чтобы заработать больше дохода и добиться большего авторитета как в своих странах, так и в диаспорах в США. Эти женщины не только инвестируют в себя и свои семьи, но и создают транснациональные сообщества посредством официального участия в НПО и неформальных сетях трудящихся-мигрантов. Книга содержит подробное описание жизни непальских женщин-мигрантов, демонстрируя глубокие и далеко идущие последствия их гражданского, экономического и политического участия, а также их устойчивость перед лицом гендерной, расовой и националистической дискриминации. Автор документирует способы, которыми эти женщины сопротивляются и выживают в новой стране, приспосабливаясь к меняющимся обстоятельствам и создавая новые возможности для себя и своих сообществ.

Nepalesische Migrantinnen Widerstand und Überleben in Amerika: Gender und Globalisierung In diesem bahnbrechenden und zeitgemäßen Buch gibt Hamal Gurung der wachsenden Zahl nepalesischer Frauen, die in die Vereinigten Staaten auswandern, um in der informellen Wirtschaft zu arbeiten, eine Stimme. Gurung erzählt die Geschichten von fünfunddreißig Frauen mit Hochschulabschluss und der Mittelschicht und fordert die traditionellen Vorstellungen von Frauen aus der Dritten Welt als Opfern von Niedriglohnbeschäftigung heraus und betont stattdessen ihre strategischen Entscheidungen, mobile Positionen von oben nach unten zu übernehmen, um mehr Einkommen zu verdienen und mehr Autorität sowohl in ihren Ländern als auch in der Diaspora in den USA zu erlangen. Diese Frauen investieren nicht nur in sich und ihre Familien, sondern schaffen auch transnationale Gemeinschaften durch offizielle Beteiligung an NGOs und informellen Netzwerken von Wanderarbeitern. Das Buch beschreibt detailliert das ben nepalesischer Migrantinnen und zeigt die tiefgreifenden und weitreichenden Auswirkungen ihres zivilen, wirtschaftlichen und politischen Engagements sowie ihre Widerstandsfähigkeit angesichts geschlechtsspezifischer, rassischer und nationalistischer Diskriminierung. Die Autorin dokumentiert die Art und Weise, wie diese Frauen in einem neuen Land Widerstand leisten und überleben, sich an veränderte Umstände anpassen und neue Möglichkeiten für sich und ihre Gemeinschaften schaffen.
