Description

Explore the changing social landscape of Vietnam through this academic study from Routledge. Since the economic reforms of the mid-1980s, domestic service has grown into a major sector of the labor market. This book examines how domestic workers have become essential to urban life in a country undergoing rapid transformation. This work analyzes how the practices and discourses of domestic service shape and contest new class identities in post-reform Vietnam. By using a wide range of qualitative data, including ethnographies, interviews, and personal narratives, the text provides a deep look into the social structures of the region. The study shows how these domestic practices are connected to long-standing cultural ideas regarding gender and the relationship between rural and urban areas. It is a significant resource for those studying Asian transformations and the sociological shifts in Southeast Asia.
