Abstract

The main focus of this chapter is the multiple and complex identities of migrant women domestic workers in London, Berlin and Istanbul. Being women of colour, being women of ethnic struggle or diaspora politics or being immigrant and lastly being domestic workers are at the same time the different faces of discrimination and determinants of the difficulties faced by these women were in their everyday lives. The chapter also discusses how the social construction of identity involves all of these categories in a range of forms of discrimination.
