abstract: 'The concept of citizenship, originally coined by Marshall, and
synonymous with social rights and equality, is pivotal in understanding
and overcoming the social injustices that many migrants experience.
Marshall''s notion of social rights, however, does not elaborate on
economic rights. Feminist authors argue that women''s equal access to
sources of income outside family relations is key to their citizenship.
Access to spaces of paid work is a significant aspect of migrant women''s
citizenship because their residence status and naturalization is often
contingent on their employment. The author thus argues that economic
rights should be central to debates on migration and citizenship. The
proposed term `economic citizenship'' is used to examine experiences and
strategies of fifty-seven skilled migrant women from Latin America, the
Middle East, and South East Europe when trying to access positions in
the Swiss labour market corresponding to their professional
qualifications. The feminist and postcolonial perspectives of
intersectionality'' and participatory research are used to understand how
and why inequalities in the labour market occur. It is found that
traditional ideas about gender roles, discourses about ethnic
difference, and discriminatory migration policies intersect to create
boundaries for skilled migrant women in accessing upper segments of the
Swiss labour market. Migration, therefore, does not always imply
empowerment and emancipation, but also generates new forms of social
inequality.'
