From Migrant to Worker – Global Unions and Temporary Labor Migration in Asia
Autor Michele Forden Limba Engleză Hardback – 14 apr 2019
From Migrant to Worker builds our understanding of the role the international labor movement and local unions have had in developing a movement for migrant workers' labor rights. Ford examines the relationship between different kinds of labor movement actors and the constraints imposed on those actors by resource flows, contingency, and local context. Her conclusions show that in countries--Hong Kong, Malaysia, and Thailand--where resource flows and local factors give the Global Union Federations more influence local unions have become much more engaged with migrant workers. But in countries--Japan and Taiwan, for example--where they have little effect there has been little progress. While much has changed, Ford forces us to see that labor migration in Asia is still fraught with complications and hardships, and that local unions are not always able or willing to act.
