Rövid leírás:
In Labor Movement, Bauder attacks the conventional view of international migration as a function of spatial economic inequalities, and shows that social, cultural, legal and institutional processes, rather than the invisible hand of the market, shape migration patterns and labor market outcomes. In empirical case studies from North America and Europe, Bauder applies his theoretical ideas to a variety of geographical contexts. The studies illustrate how different legal, social, and cultural strategies towards international migrants are deployed and coordinated, and how this complex web of regulatory labor market processes relates to international migration. Bauder also integrates social, cultural and economic forms of capital, and includes citizenship as a form of cultural or institutional capital for migrants, a welcome and novel contribution to social scientists' methods of examining immigration and labor markets.

Throughout the industrialized world, international migrants serve as nannies, construction workers, gardeners and small-business entrepreneurs. Labor Movement suggests that the international migration of workers is necessary for the survival of industrialized economies. The book thus turns the conventional view of international migration on its head: it investigates how migration regulates labor markets, rather than labor markets shaping migration flows. Assuming a critical view of orthodox economic theory, the book illustrates how different legal, social and cultural strategies towards international migrants are deployed and coordinated within the wider neo-liberal project to render migrants and immigrants vulnerable, pushing them into performing distinct economic roles and into subordinate labor market situations.
Drawing on social theories associated with Pierre Bourdieu and other prominent thinkers, Labor Movement suggests that migration regulates labor markets through processes of social distinction, cultural judgement and the strategic deployment of citizenship. European and North American case studies illustrate how the labor of international migrants is systematically devalued and how popular discourse legitimates the demotion of migrants to subordinate labor. Engaging with various immigrant groups in different cities, including South Asian immigrants in Vancouver, foreigners and Spätaussiedler in Berlin, and Mexican and Caribbean offshore workers in rural Ontario, the studies seek to unravel the complex web of regulatory labor market processes related to international migration.
Recognizing and understanding these processes, Bauder argues, is an important step towards building effective activist strategies and for envisioning new roles for migrating workers and people. The book is a valuable resource to researchers and students in economics, ethnic and migration studies, geography, sociology, political science, and to frontline activists in Europe, North America and beyond.
