Description: Unfree Labour? : Struggles of Migrant and Immigrant Workers in Canada, Paperback by Choudry, Aziz (EDT); Smith, Adrian A. (EDT), ISBN 1629631493, ISBN-13 9781629631493, Brand New, Free shipping in the US Over the past decade, Canada has experienced considerable growth in labour migration. Moreover, temporary labour migration has replaced permanent immigration as the primary means by which people enter Canada. Utilizing the rhetoric of maintaining competitiveness, Canadian employers and the state have ushered in an era of neoliberal migration alongside an agenda of austerity flowing from capitalist crisis. Labour markets have been restructured to render labour more flexible and precarious, and in Canada as in other high-income capitalist labour markets, employers are relying on migrant and immigrant workers as 'unfree labour.' This book explores labour migration to Canada and how public policies of temporary and guest worker programs function in the global context of work and capitalist restructuring. Contributors are directly engaged with the issues emerging from the influx of temporary foreign workers and Canada's 'creeping economic apartheid.'
