Abstract

The essays collected in this volume arise from a conference held in Vienna in 2002, and outline various aspects of the legal situation of female migrants in Austria. Issues such as the residence situation, labour market, access to social support and the health system, or trafficking in women are described from a female perspective. In its vivid case documentation, the volume illustrates forms of structural violence that underlie the Austrian legislation targeting female migrants.
