Çiçek Tanlı Autschbach – författare

This book approaches the daily struggles of migrantized divorced motherhood through theories, discourses, and (in)visibilities of everyday violence. Analyzing the individual narratives of divorced mothers living in Germany with immigration biographies from Turkey, it tackles their struggles with poverty, dequalification, maternal guilt, time constraints, care, everyday racism and sexism, as well as the conceptualizations of violence itself. With attention to various forms of victimizations, vulnerabilities, and resistances, it delves into the relational self of “lone” motherhood to the resources of intimate and structural support, and the everyday protests embedded in these relations.
