How are migrants, non-nationals, racialized and othered individuals affected by and engaging with family politics and policies? What can we learn about the relationship between “the state” and “the family” , by investigating how gender, race and class intersect when it comes to governing and administering families and what this implies for understanding the power relationships at play?

We explored this in a panel at the European Conference on Politics and Gender, held 6-8 July 2022 in Ljubljana.
