In this book review, Onur Yamaner’s study on Syrian female refugees’ experiences of intersectional marginalization, published in 2021 in Germany, will be examined from a critical perspective that attests to both the strengths and weaknesses of the research. The review will first provide a summary of Yamaner’s work, including its theoretical foundations and methodology. Then, it will discuss some shortcomings involved in the study that mainly stem from its ignorance of what the critical feminist paradigm has to say on the subject. It is hoped that this review will provide insights to researchers who would like to approach the issue of femininization of migration from an intersectional perspective in the future.
