Scripts of Servitude: Language, Labor Migration and Transnational Domestic Work - Critical Language and Literacy Studies
Beatriz P. Lorente
This book examines how language is a central resource in transforming migrant women into transnational domestic workers. Focusing on the migration of women from the Philippines to Singapore, it unpacks why and how language is embedded in the infrastructure of transnational labor migration that links migrant-sending and migrant-receiving countries.
