- Description
- This book offers a global and comparative history of textile workers over the course of 350 years.

The first part of the book is divided into twenty national studies on textile production. The countries described have been selected to include the major historic producers of woollen and cotton fabrics, and the diversity of global experience, an include not only European nations, but also Argentina, Brazil, China, Egypt, India, Japan, Mexico, Turkey, Uruguay and the USA. The second part of the book consists of papers on topics including globalization and trade, organization of production, space, identity, workplace, institutions, production relations, gender, ethnicity and the textile firm.

- Description
- Lan demonstrates how economic disparities, immigration policies, race, ethnicity, and gender intersect in the relationship between the migrant workers and their Taiwanese employers. The employers are eager to flex their recently acquired financial muscle: many are first-generation career women as well as first-generation employers. The domestics are recruited from abroad as contract and 'guest'workers: restrictive immigration policies prohibit them from seeking permanent residence of transferring from one employer to another. They care for Taiwanese families'children, often having left their own behind. Lan pays attention to how the women she studies identify themselves in realation to óthers'- whether they be of different classes, nationalities, ethnicities, or education levels.

- Description
- In this study, authorsrs focus on informal economies such as health care, domestic work, street vending, and the garment industry, where displaced women do often work. Because such informal labor markets are unregulated, many of these workers face abusive working conditions that are not reported for fear of job loss or deportation. In examining the complex dynamics of how immigrant women navigate political and economic uncertainties, this collection highlights the important role of citizenship status in defining immigrant women's opportunities, wages, and labor conditions.

- Description
- The publication presents a cultural practice that focuses on gender in cross-border and migration movements and in the geographic context of post-urban zones such as the ones that have developed along the U.S.-Mexican border or on the periphery of Istanbul. From different perspectives, the projects look at how female bodies circulate in the transnational space, how gender relations are being regulated in the urban public sphere, in the subcontracting economy of international labor division and border economies, and in virtual and physical migration flows. At the same time, these projects pursue a continuing interest in gender and minority representations in the media and in the signifying systems of art and ethnography. Many of them have been realized in collaboration with migrant women in Europe or in global production sites. The publication sets out to link gender-specific social and economic analysis to the institutional critique of art and the cultural production and circulation of images.
