They examine the ways in which the phenomenon of race and racism interrelate with other social...

This book engages with migrant work in globalizing economies, both in the EU and worldwide, to explore the relationships between work and the complexity of migrant belonging in transnational spaces.

Special foci include issues of temporality, circularity and precarity; solidarity and belonging; migrants' strategies...
