Sportel studies the interactions of European and Islamic family law, addressing its interconnections with migration and everyday life, within the context of highly politicised debates on gender, Islam, migration and the family.</p><p>The book will be of interest to scholars and students of family sociology, migration and diaspora studies, transnational families, family law, and sociology of law.</p><p></p><p> </p>
