| The New Maids examines the relationship between globalization, transnationalism, gender and the care economy.Addressing the questions that surround the increasing number of migrant domestic workers and cleaners, child-carers and caregivers who maintain modern Western households, the author argues that domestic work plays the defining role in global ethnic and gender hierarchies. Using a central ethnographic study of immigrant domestic workers and their German employees as its starting point, The New Maids uses the voices of such women themselves to provide unique conceptual and evidential support for this new approach argument. This book argues for new standards for feminist global methodology. | |
