This book approaches the daily struggles of migrantized divorced motherhood through theories, discourses, and (in)visibilities of everyday violence. Analyzing the individual narratives of divorced mothers living in Germany with immigration biographies from Turkey, it tackles their struggles with poverty, dequalification, maternal guilt, time constraints, care, everyday racism and sexism, as well as the conceptualizations of violence itself. With attention to various forms of victimizations, vulnerabilities, and resistances, it delves into the relational self of “lone” motherhood to the resources of intimate and structural support, and the everyday protests embedded in these relations.

“Tanlı Autschbach explores how immigrant divorced mothers from Turkey forge new understandings of their place in the world, their collective action and resistance, and their labor as lone mothers. Tanlı Autschbach’s book is at once a much-needed rethinking of women’s relationship to violence, and a hopeful story of how women survive and thrive—even as they protest against increasing precarity in their lives.” —Beverly Weber, Chair, Germanic and Slavic Languages and Literatures (GSLL), Professor of German Studies, University of Colorado, Boulder, USA. “A compelling and original study, this work offers a sharp feminist and intersectional analysis of immigrant divorced mothers’ everyday struggles and agency. Its rigorous scholarship, reflexive methodology and nuanced critique of how violence is defined position it as an important and timely contribution to debates on gender, migration and structural harm.” —Katucha Bento, Lecturer in Race and Decolonial Studies, The University of Edinburgh, School of Social and Political Science, UK.
