Books by Caroline B. Brettell

Gender roles, relations, and ideologies are major aspects of migration. This timely book argues that understanding gender relations is vital to a full and more nuanced explanation of both the causes and the consequences of migration, in the past and at present.

Brettell explores the cross-disciplinary exchanges, both past and present, which have engaged cultural anthropologists-and invites readers to continue the conversations.

Stimulated by discussions of responsibility and ethics in anthropological fieldwork, this book explores what happens when people who are the subjects of research read what has been written about them.
