Melissa Siegel - Similar but not equal

About this event: http://www.imi.ox.ac.uk/projects/them... Melissa Siegel presented her paper 'Similar but not equal: the differing evolution of (gendered) migration systems in Moldova and Georgia' in Parallel session I(A) of the conference Examining Migration Dynamics: Networks and Beyond, held at the University of Oxford from 24-26 September 2013. The paper is co-authored by Michaella Vanore. This paper comparatively examines the evolution of migration systems in Moldova and Georgia, focusing on the changing gender patterns of migration and the different paths each country has taken regarding female migration. While large-scale migration from both countries can be traced to the end of the Soviet period, important differences in the post-Soviet social, political, and economic transitions experienced by each country have resulted in unique migration patterns. In reviewing the beginnings, development, and sustained importance of migration systems in Moldova and Georgia, this paper documents how changing economic needs and opportunities coupled with evolving political relationships with neighbouring countries have molded gendered migration processes in each country. Using household survey data collected between 2011-2013 in Moldova and Georgia, this paper finds that political and economic relationships with Russia and the EU are critical determinants of gendered migration patterns in both Moldova and Georgia. Recent shifts in migration patterns reflect changes to the quality and substance of these relationships over time: while migration of low- and medium-skilled male workers has continued relatively unabated from Moldova to Russia, the antagonistic political relationship between Georgia and Russia has stymied the flow of male labour migrants from Georgia to the countries in the Commonwealth of Independent States. Such evolving dynamics are important to understand for both Moldova and Georgia, which have experienced the loss of 25 per cent of their populations to migration over the past two decades.
