Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
Product DescriptionVietnam annually sends a half million laborers to work at lowskill jobs abroad. Angie Ng?c Tr?n concentrates on ethnicity, class, and gender to examine how migrant workers belonging to the Kinh, Hoa, Hr, Khmer, and Chm ethnic groups challenge a transnational process that coerces and exploits them. Focusing on migrant laborers working in Malaysia, Tr?n looks at how they carve out a third space that allows them a socially accepted means of resistance to survive and even thrive at times. She also shows how the Vietnamese state uses Malaysia as a place to send poor workers, especially from ethnic minorities; how it manipulates its rural poor into accepting work in Malaysia; and the ways in which both countries benefit from the arrangement.A rare study of labor migration in the Global South, Ethnic Dissent and Empowerment answers essential questions about why nations export and import migrant workers and how the workers protect themselves not only within the system, but by circumventing it altogether.Review'Focusing on Vietnams labor export policy to Malaysia, Angie Tr?n shows us why gender and ethnic hierarchies matter in remaking the politics of control and dissent. Essential reading for all those interested in SouthSouth labor brokerage and temporary migration.'Brenda S. A. Yeoh, coeditor of Routledge Handbook of Asian Migrations'This book features workers describing their conditions as laborers in foreign countries. Often shining through is how workers turned adversities into triumphs, usually modest but still invigorating. Also significant is that the workers are from five ethnic groups within Vietnamese society.'Benedict J.
