Riassunto:This article offers a critical rereading and contextualisation of REMI articles addressing the issue of women’s migration. Over time, articles published have explored a wide range of issues (such as sexuality, racism, classism, borders, mobility, family, etc.) by moving away from androcentric, heteronormative, and Western paradigms. Situating the analysis within a Francophone—and particularly French—academic tradition, the authors show how the growing attention to women in migration studies has been accompanied by a more complex analytical lens. This shift is evident both in the consideration of new migratory configurations, themes, and geographical areas, and in the reinterpretation of themes previously addressed. Adopting a feminist perspective also makes it possible to examine the complexity of knowledge-power systems, and to decentre Eurocentric viewpoints, thereby advancing the understanding of migration phenomena within a critical and reflexive global epistemological space.
