Scaling Migrant Worker Rights

"Highly original and timely, Scaling Migrant Worker Rights shines a light on underexplored actors in the labor rights and protection enforcement process, in particular consular officials from the sending state located in the US and US- and Mexico-based NGOs working at multiple scales--locally, regionally, nationally, and transnationally"--Leah F. Vosko, author of Disrupting Deportability: Transnational Workers Organize "Combining interviews, surveys, newly uncovered government documents, and participant observation, this important and innovative work provides a nuanced, rich, and detailed meso-analysis of institutions and institutional collaboration in Mexico and the US."--Nancy Plankey-Videla, author of We Are in This Dance Together: Gender, Power, and Globalization at a Mexican Garment Firm "A very robust and nuanced empirical analysis documenting how co-enforcement mechanisms across transnational civil society, consulates, and national governments work to implement existing labor rights protections at international and bilateral levels."--Alexandra Délano Alonso, author of Mexico and Its Diaspora in the United States: Policies of Emigration since 1848
