DESCRIPTION:Gender is a constitutive factor of both international migration
 \nand the borders that states put in place to manage it.\nBorder scholars 
 are\, however\, reluctant to give gender the\nimportance it deserves\, bot
 h in their analysis of the\nborder-crossing experience and of border polic
 y and practice.\nThis curtails our understanding of borders as complex ent
 ities\nwith variable meanings and levels of porosity.\nUsing feminist geop
 olitics as the critical foundation for my\ndiscussion\, Luna Vives will an
 alyze the West\nAfrican/Southern European border as an example of how a he
 avily\ngendered and racialized conception of South-North migration\ndeterm
 ines who must be stopped and how.\n\nLuna Vives is a Geography PhD Candida
 te at the\nUniversity of British Columbia. Her PhD research focuses on the
 \ncross-border journeys of Senegalese women who have recently\nmigrated to
  Spain and the ways in which the intersection of race\,\ngender\, and migr
 ation status shapes their experiences once in the\ncountry.\nPhoto : Javie
