My overarching research focuses on the dynamics of migration, transnationalism, social capital, and identities. My current project examines the political debates regarding Muslim marriage migrants' integration in Canada and Britain and reflect on how these perceived problems and state interventions are constructed on the intersections of gender, religion, class and national origin. My primary methodological approach – ethnography – sheds light on the voices of those often silenced within these matrixes.
