It places the book about the ŽAlexandrian womenŽ by Daša Koprivec in a wider European and global research trend, presenting historical and contemporary forms of women's paid care work.Work and the migration of women connected to it have always been embeddedin normative, socially prescribed gender roles, and as a result in thenational imagination. As the text shows, the (past) migration of women to Alexandria is therefore once more an important social topic in Slovenia. Equally important are the subjective experiences of the women migrants and their descendants, which are now finally heard thanks to researches and books like the present one by Daša KoprivecV prispevku avtorica oriše kontekst aktualnega raziskovanja ženskih migracij in skrbstvenega dela kot novodobnega fenomena razvitih družb, kjer naj bi po splošnih pričakovanjih že pred časom izginil. Knjigo Daše Koprivec o aleksandrinkah umesti v širši evropski in globalni trend raziskovanja, ki razkriva pretekle in sodobne oblike ženskega plačanega skrbstvenega dela. Deloin s tem povezana migracija žensk je bilo vedno vraščeno v družbeno predpisano normativiko spolnih vlog in posledično v nacionalno imaginacijo. Kot dokazuje avtorica, je prav zato aleksandrinstvo v Sloveniji posebej aktualna tema. Pomembne pa so tudi subjektivne izkušnje žensk migrantk in njihovih potomcev, ki jih končno naredijo slišne prav takšne raziskave, kot joje objavila Daša KoprivecTEXTznanstveno časopisjejournalsSlovenian National E-content AggregatorNational and University Library of SloveniaSlovenski etnografski muzej
