Precarious Lives: Forced Labour, Exploitation and Asylum de Peter Dwyer

Precarious Lives: Forced Labour, Exploitation and Asylum

Autor Peter Dwyer, Stuart Hodkinson, Hannah Lewis, Louise Waite
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 15 ian 2016
This groundbreaking volume presents the first detailed look at forced labor among displaced migrants who are seeking refuge in the United Kingdom. Through a critical engagement with contemporary debates about sociolegal statuses, endangerment, and degrees of freedom and its lack, the book carefully details the link between asylum and forced labor and shows how they are both part of the larger picture of modern slavery brought about by globalization.

Recenzii

“Precarious Lives breaks new ground by focusing on the working experiences of new and refused asylum seekers as well as trafficked workers in the United Kingdom. It exposes the role of the state in causing and perpetuating modern slavery and makes a powerful demand for action. It should be essential reading for politicians as well as campaigners.”

“Truly unique. . . . Precarious Lives shouldn’t simply be used to highlight the flaws in the UK immigration system; rather, the book is compelling as a means to improve the system, especially in this globalized society.”
