Abstract
In this concluding chapter the authors consider key aspects of their comparative study of women migrant domestic workers in the three cities of London, Berlin and Istanbul. Ways in which regimes of gender and migration intersect to shape the lives and work of migrant women are seen as critical in their analysis. Through these and using intersectional analysis, they further identify and explore gender power relations in regimes of family and religion, considering especially the interplay with patriarchal codes which subordinate women. Contrary to studies which locate migrant women domestic workers as victims, the authors foreground how the women’s agency, both individual and collective, may make a difference.
