Understanding Migrant Women’s Domestic Cleaning as a Caring Practice
This article provides an empirical basis for the theorizing of domestic cleaning as care. An ostensibly mundane but essential part of the wider care economy, domestic cleaning has been overlooked in the literature to date. Centering the narratives of a group of migrant women cleaners in a small English city, the study adopts a feminist ethic of care which seeks to privilege the voices of this less-heard group. Semi-structured interviews provide r…

A Choice We Had to Fight For”
Conceptualizing the intersections between migration, (in)hospitality and belonging in uncertain times
Crossing disciplinary and geographical boundaries, migration research provides insight into contemporary migration patterns and new phenomena, and explores human experiences of migration that stretch beyond one-dimensional political and public discourses. Experiences of hospitality and hostility, and how these shape migrants’ sense of belonging, are central to migration research and practice. Through conceptualizing the intersections between migr…
We Don't Let It Build Up
This mixed-methods study examined couples' relationship quality, satisfaction and well-being by comparing semi-traditional, equal-sharing and role-reversed couples. Quantitative analysis involved 2813 parents (1380 men, 1433 women) with at least one child aged 11 or under who were primary caregivers, primary breadwinners or equal-sharers. Qualitative analysis drew on 60 in-depth interviews with 10 couples from each of the groups. Semi-traditional…
Undoing Gendered Identities? Centrality and Meanings of Parental and Work Identities in Semi-Traditional, Equal-Sharing and Role-Reversed Couples
This mixed-methods study explored the centrality and meanings of men’s and women’s parental and work-related identities by comparing semi-traditional, equal-sharing, and role-reversed couples. Quantitative analysis involved 2,813 British parents (1,380 men, 1,433 women) who were primary caregivers, primary breadwinners, or equal sharers with at least one child aged 11 or under. Qualitative analysis drew on 60 in-depth interviews with 10 couples f…
The politics of naming and construction
The problematisation of a social phenomenon is a political process that both constructs the problem and, in doing so, suggests possible remedies and occludes others.Based on the first-ever comprehensive analysis of 129 UK university policies to address Gender-based violence (GBV), we examine how the 'problem' of GBV is conceptualised in institutional policies.We explore three interconnected themes: the nature of the 'problem' that is constituted,…
Introduction
Emotions are increasingly recognised as a fundamental dimension of human mobility. Indeed, there has been sustained and increasing scholarly interest in the intersection between migration and emotion over the last two decades. Theoretical and empirical contributions in this area have advanced our understanding of migration experiences in their diversity. Furthermore, viewing migrants’ lived experiences through an emotions lens can reveal a variet…
Understanding the Hidden Emotional Labour of Migrant Women Doing Domestic Cleaning Work in England
This essay explores the emotional labour of women migrants working as domestic cleaners in a small city in England. Drawing on qualitative data gathered through in-depth semi-structured interviews, the essay foregrounds the narratives of a group whose perspectives have not been widely captured. In order to provide a good service, cleaners in the sample modified and mobilised their emotions, conveying friendliness and expressing empathy when faced…
Gender equality, resilience to climate change, and the design of livestock projects for rural livelihoods
Currently, there is growing interest in how livestock projects can contribute to resilienceto the effects of climate change. In this article we recommend a shift away from grossproductivity to sustainability, via the use of thrifty local breeds, with an additionalemphasis on improving survival of young animals. These animals, due to their localadaptations, are more likely to be resilient to climate change. There is a genderdimension to these prop…
