Rezension zu „Global Cities at Work: New Migrant Divisions of Labour “
The voices of migrant workers -- so often silenced in mainstream discussions of the global city -- come alive in these pages. Meticulously researched and powerfully argued, the book exposes the hidden hands that make global cities work, while staking a claim to a more just future. -- Jamie Peck, Professor of Geography, University of British Columbia A rare but critical window into the scale, nature and contradictions of contemporary immigration into the UK. ... A welcome and essential read for anyone interested in going beyond simplistic headlines. -- Danny Sriskandarajah, former Head of Migration at the Institute for Public Policy Research A very timely book. The description of migration-based divisions in the labour market should be of concern to all policy makers and politicians currently involved in planning a way out of deep recession. -- Don Flynn, Director of the Migrants Rights Network
