| Popis: |
Several themes which emerged from the preceding chapters are highlighted including the central message: to fully understand the immigration process and to develop social policies, gender of both adults and children needs to be incorporated into future studies in this area. The heterogeneity of immigrants may follow different paths, and gender may play critical roles in decisions to leave and return to their country of origin. Changes in the sociohistorical context have led to shifts in family roles and have challenged the stereotypes of traditional gender roles. The richness of methodological approaches provides meaningful description and advances our insights about process. The future challenge is to incorporate advances in the biology of gender with the role of culture in order to provide a comprehensive account of the way gender moderates the immigration process. Finally, gender of both adults and children needs to be recognized by policy makers. |
