Zusammenfassung: | Migrant Construction Workers in Singapore : an Introduction / Kellynn Wee, Theodora Lam and Brenda S.A. Yeoh FBA -- A Regime of Temporary Migration -- Work Conditions and Health Concerns -- Social Connections, Personal Lives -- A Migrant's Eye View. "Serves as an introductory primer that draws together contemporary texts in the field of low-waged labour migration in Singapore to build a deeper understanding of these questions and assist readers in formulating adequate intellectual, policy and advocacy responses. Includes an introductory essay which chronicles and discusses the impact of the pandemic on the migrant worker population, and in so doing, provides rhizomatic linkages to the issues foregrounded in the selected research papers. Presents newly written reflections accompanying each chapter that provide a concise introduction to the main themes and findings of the paper and offer a useful roadmap to readers as they engage with each research article. Features illustrations of a poem "The Death of Wishes" penned by a migrant worker confined to his dormitory as part of COVID-19's quarantine procedures." |
