Unequal knowledge production and circulation in migration studies: gender and migration and feminist and decolonial perspectives

In this chapter, we address the uneven (e)valuation of knowledge, which is related both to how knowledge is produced as well as how it circulates, the two aspects being closely related. We seek to probe more deeply into the institutional dimensions of the uneven production and circulation of knowledge, and in particular, the ability to conduct research and its funding, the hegemony of English and its implications for research and teaching, and some reflections on how we might effectively challenge it within the context of academic reflexivity in the field of migration studies.
