Free Download Concealed Chains : Labour Exploitation and Chinese Migrants in Europe By Yun Gao
2010 | 206 Pages | ISBN: 9221219933 | PDF | 1 MB
This groundbreaking book exposes the hidden world of Chinese irregular migrants in three European countries: France, Italy and the United Kingdom. Chinese workers migrating to Europe pay huge sums of money to intermediaries, often leaving them trapped in debt before they even begin their journey. Exposed to various risks during their migratory process, they can arrive in the destination country vulnerable to extreme exploitation and sometimes even forced labour. Through analysis of the employment relationship between the different actors in the labour market, the book seeks to understand the links that connect vulnerable Chinese workers to European labour markets and a complex international production chain. Presenting detailed case studies, a clear explanation of the relevant international and national legal frameworks and an overview of the migration mechanism between China and Europe, this book makes an important contribution to understanding how to break these patterns of labour exploitation.
