Description

Explore the complex dynamics of global labor migration in Made in the Philippines: Gendered Discourses and the Making of Migrants. This scholarly work examines how the Philippines functions as the world's largest exporter of temporary contract labor, with approximately 800,000 workers deployed annually on short-term contracts. Author James A. Tyner provides a deep analysis of how migration is regulated by government, private, and non-governmental organizations. The text explores the concept that migrants are socially constructed by these various parties, transforming individuals into political resources. By employing a post-structural feminist perspective, the book questions the very ontology of migration and offers a unique look at the social processes involved in labor movement. This title is an essential resource for students and professionals interested in geography, sociology, and the political economy of migration in the Pacific Rim.
