آن سوی مرزها؛ آوای در حاشیه ماندگان الفارسية 1447

Beyond the Borders: The Voice of the Marginalized, written by Shahnaz Shirdelian, is a research-based and human-centered work that examines the lives of undocumented Iranian migrant women in Sweden. These women, living in conditions of silence and insecurity, bear the intersecting burdens of migration, discrimination, and the absence of legal rights. Drawing on qualitative research and in-depth interviews, the book documents authentic narratives of suffering, resilience, and hope, while offering a clear picture of the human consequences of restrictive migration policies.

Adopting a sociological perspective with a strong sensitivity to gender, the author demonstrates how the lack of legal residency exposes women to compounded vulnerabilities: housing and employment insecurity, exclusion from healthcare services, constant fear of deportation, and experiences of emotional and sexual violence that often remain unspoken. The book is a deliberate effort to make audible the voices of women pushed to the margins and to raise fundamental questions about human rights, social justice, and the responsibility of migrant-receiving societies.

Beyond the Borders is a valuable resource for scholars and readers interested in women’s studies, migration studies, and sociology. It also provides students and social activists with a well-documented and compelling insight into a hidden yet critical social reality.
