Despite the great number of female migrants and their importance for the development agenda in countries of origin, there has until recently been a striking lack of gender analysis in the economic literature on international migration and development. This volume makes a valuable contribution in this context by providing eight new studies focusing on the nexus between gender, international migration, and economic development. 410 0$aWorld Bank e-Library. 606 $aWomen immigrants 606 $aWomen foreign workers 606 $aWomen$xEconomic conditions 606 $aEmigration and immigration$xEconomic aspects 606 $aBrain drain 615 0$aWomen immigrants. 615 0$aWomen foreign workers. 615 0$aWomen$xEconomic conditions. 615 0$aEmigration and immigration$xEconomic aspects. 615 0$aBrain drain. 676 $a305.48/96912 701 $aMorrison$b Andrew R$0253346 701 $aSchiff$b Maurice$089233 701 $aSjo?blom$b Mirja$f1981-$01492854 801 0$bDLC 801 1$bDLC 801 2$bDLC 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910778264303321 996 $aThe international migration of women$93715565 997 $aUNINA
