The Strangers Among Us

The Strangers Among Us: Tales from a Global Migrant Worker Movement, edited by Joseph B. Atkins, offers readers compelling insight from 10 writers around the world about migrant workers' rising consciousness of their rights and ability to assert those rights in a global economy that seems to place all power in the hands of mega-corporations. From tobacco workers in North Carolina to Vietnamese domestic workers in Taiwan and the network of organizations that support them, a movement is emerging that will pose a growing challenge to neoliberal rule.
