Merchants of Migrant Domestic Labour: Recruitment Agencies and Neoliberal Migration Governance in Southeast Asia

Liberty Chee is a MarieSklodowska-Curie Fellow at Ca’ Foscari University of Venice, Italy. Her research examines migrant domestic work through the interdisciplinary lenses of feminist political economy, migration studies and international relations theory. She has been working within the ambit of global migration governance, notably the role of intermediaries (the ’migration industry’) in shaping globalizing markets in domestic work. She is interested in IR theory, interpretive research methods, and feminist epistemology.
