Rezension

"This volume does exactly what the title promises: it puts labor and labor relations worldwide in the center and reveals the way employers, state, empires and supranational institutions shape migration patterns, then and now. The editors succeed in putting together a highly interesting collection of essays that talk to each other and open new venues, approaches and perspectives, while finding striking similarities between the continents. But this book also shows how migrants--despite ongoing exploitation and exclusion--find their own loopholes and chase their dreams. A must read for those interested in how the past structures current day trends, discussions, and daily practices from Beijing to Detroit."--Leo Lucassen, Director of the International Institute of Social History
