For over half a century, the countless organizations and initiatives that comprise the Women's Liberation movement have helped to reshape many aspects of Western societies, from public institutions and cultural production to body politics and subsequent activist movements. This collection represents the first systematic investigation of WLM's cumulative impacts and achievements within the West. Here, specialists on movements in Europe systematically investigate outcomes in different countries in the light of a reflective social movement theory, comparing them both implicitly and explicitly to developments in other parts of the world.

This edited book addresses the diversity across time and space of the sites, actors and practices of feminist translation from 1945-2000. The contributors examine what happens when a politically motivated text is translated linguistically and culturally, the translators and their aims, and the strategies employed when adapting texts to locally resonating discourses. The collection aims to answer these questions through case studies and a conceptual rethinking of the process of politically engaged translation, considering not only trained translators and publishers, but also feminist activists and groups, NGOs and writers. The book will be of interest to students and researchers in the fields of translation studies, gender/women's studies, literature and feminist history.

This book provides a unique perspective on migration throughout Western Europe after the Second World War by exploring the complex histories of migrant children and families under the conditions of a restrictive migration regime. By historicising what ‘family’, ‘migration’, or ‘childhood’ meant in specific historical moments and places, this collection examines the impact that intra-European population mobilisation had on migrants between the 1950s and early 1990s. While previous research has focused on the many legal, economic, and diplomatic aspects of European migration, this book sheds light on the social situations, strategies, and experiences of so-called ‘guest workers’, particularly in relation to their families. Due to official archives revealing little about the lives of children who lived, sometimes for years, clandestinely, in their host countries, there is a need for a more nuanced approach to understanding the perspectives of migrating families in the mid-twentieth century. The contributions in this book bring together research from diverse fields, such as oral history, the sociology of mobilisation, social history of migration, social justice, gender studies, and transnationalism.  On various levels (from the local to the international), they explore and contextualise the strategies which migrant families adopted to help deal with the hesitation of Western European nation states to grant the right of family reunification to labour migrants. Their analysis allows to establish a comprehensive and comparative overview about the multiple social situations that shape the live of migrant families, including access to schooling, health care, or the legal system.

1933-1945: Tausende von Kulturschaffenden verlassen Nazi-Deutschland, ein Teil von ihnen geht in die Schweiz. Warum haben sie es schwer, dort Fuß zu fassen? Wie kommt es, dass das Verhältnis zwischen schweizerischen und deutschen Autoren trotz ihrer kulturellen Nähe belastet ist? Das Buch eröffnet eine neue Perspektive auf alte Fragen, denn es betrachtet das literarische Exil in der Schweiz aus der Sicht des Ankunftslandes. Die schweizerischen Schriftsteller befanden sich in Bezug auf die deutschsprachigen Autoren, die in der Schweiz Zuflucht suchten, in einer Struktur der Doppelbindung: Sie orientierten sich einerseits an den literarischen Zentren des deutschsprachigen literarischen Feldes und waren andererseits auf die Anerkennung der Peers der nationalen schweizerischen Literaturproduktion angewiesen. Indem die Autorin das Konzept des "double bind" operationalisiert, gelingt es, eine Brücke zwischen einer literatursoziologischen und einer historischen Betrachtungsweise zu schlagen und damit die ambivalente Haltung der Schweizer Autoren zu erklären.

Ein zentraler Fokus der Exil- und Migrationsforschung ist die Bewegung, als Grenzuberschreitung oder Fluchtprozess. Gerade Exil-Erfahrungen sind jedoch haufig ebenso an Bewegungslosigkeit, Unterbrechung, Ziellosigkeit und Stagnation geknupft. Das Begriffspaar der (Im-)Mobilitat fasst fur die Exilsituation charakteristische Spannungen und Paradoxien und ladt zu Reflexionen uber ihr Verhaltnis zu modernden Paradigmen des Fortkommens ein.

Das Thema Migration beherrscht weiterhin die politische Debatte, wobei haufig eine historische Dimension fehlt. Eine transepochale Perspektive kann jedoch zeigen, dass Mobilitat konstitutiv fur menschliche Gesellschaften ist. In dieser "e;L'Homme"e;-Ausgabe werden bislang wenig erforschte geschlechtsspezifische Aspekte dazu in den Mittelpunkt geruckt. Dadurch lasst sich Migration als historisch vielfaltiges und vielschichtiges Phanomen charakterisieren - und dies jenseits der gelaufigen dichotomen Vorstellung von vermeintlich mobilen Mannern und sesshaften Frauen. Neu in den Blick geraten so Motive, Formen, Raume, Organisation und Folgen weiblicher Mobilitat. Die Beitrage beleuchten Facetten von Arbeitsmigration, Migrationspolitik und Logiken der Herkunfts- und Aufnahmegesellschaften in einem innereuropaischen und transatlantischen Rahmen vom Mittelalter bis zur Gegenwart. Aus dem Inhalt: Weibliche und mannliche Migrationserfahrungen in Pennsylvania um 1700 / Familienzusammenfuhrung und Migrationspolitik um 1920 / Frauen in der Migrationsgeschichte Sudosteuropas (19. u. 20. Jh.) / Die (Selbst-)Mobilisierung der Ursulinen im Ersten Weltkrieg (Sudtirol) / Geschlecht, Marginalitat und Mobilitat im Spatmittelalter / Schulbildung fur Frauen in Bosnien und Herzegowina (1878 1918) / Interview with Nancy L. Green: Challenging the Paradigms. Comparison, Gender and Migration / Frauen als die 'anderen' Fluchtlinge / Die Sexualisierung des politischen Kampfes gegen Gender in der autoritaren Rechten / Ein autobiografischer Ruckblick auf das Innenleben einer deutsch-italienischen Ehe seit den 1960er JahrenThe topic of migration is dominating current political debates, yet historical depth is often completely lacking. A transepochal perspective can show that mobility is constitutive for all human societies. This issue places gender-specific aspects, which have been insufficiently researched so far, at the center of investigation. The chosen approach allows migration to be characterized as a historically diverse and multifaceted phenomenon beyond the common dichotomous view of supposedly adventurous men and sedentary women. It brings newly into focus reasons, forms, spaces, organizations, and consequences of mobility. The contributions shed light on gender-specific aspects of labor migration, migration policies, and the logics of societies of origin and receiving societies in an intra-European and transatlantic context, from the Middle Ages to the 20th century.
