Princeton, N.J. : Princeton University Press, [2011] ©2011 1 online resource (xiii, 273 pages) : illustrations text txt rdacontent computer c rdamedia online resource cr rdacarrier Includes bibliographical references (pages 227-263) and index. Leaps of faith -- Variations on a theme -- Macaulay's (cyber) children -- The uses and abuses of time -- The rules of the game -- The infantilizing gaze, or Schmidt revisited -- The juggernaut of global capitalism -- Cyber-coolies and techno-populists. In the Indian outsourcing industry, employees are expected to be "dead ringers" for the more expensive American workers they have replaced--complete with Westernized names, accents, habits, and lifestyles that are organized around a foreign culture in a distant time zone. Dead Ringers chronicles the rise of a workforce for whom mimicry is a job requirement and a passion. In the process, the book deftly explores the complications of hybrid lives and presents a vivid portrait of a workplace where globalization carries as many downsides as advantages.
