Marlene H. Jacobsen, a graduate student at the University of Kentucky, reviews Working Lives: Gender, Migration and Employment in Britain, 1945-2007. The handbook seeks to explore the connections between gender, migration, transnationalism and development in the context of an increasingly globalized world. Global production chains are situated at the center of the analysis, which draws on field-based empirical contributions largely from within the European Union, as well as the US and Ecuador.
