Short Summary: The gender dimension and women’s experiences are identified as a gap in migration studies. This Special Issue addresses that gap with an overview of material, selected articles, and an annotated bibliography on women and migration, primarily but not exclusively focussing on India. Themes covered in the overview and bibliography include: internal and international migration, women left behind, women’s rural-rural and rural-urban migration, including women’s migration for domestic labour and for construction work. Women in rural- rural seasonal migration face extremely exploitative conditions. In urban areas, women migrants are constrained from finding work by their domestic roles and lack of skills. The bibliography includes 39 summaries of materials on migration.
