Providing important sociological insight into the dynamics of
migration the essays in this collection focus on issues associated
with migration for work both in and from the Asian region. With
contributions from an international team of well-known scholars,
the text sets labor migration firmly within the context of
globalization, providing a focused, contemporary discussion of what
is undoubtedly a major twenty-first century concern.
The first of its kind to look at the non-professionals who make up
the vast majority of migrant workers in the region, the book
analyses workers motivations and rationalities, highlighting the
similarities of migration experiences throughout Asia. Presenting
in-depth case studies of the real-life experiences and problems
faced by migrant workers, the book discusses migrants relations
with the state and their vulnerability to exploitation, as well as
the major policy issues now facing governments, employers, NGOs and
international agencies
