Summary:

While it is one of the world's leading exporters of labor, Indonesia remains on the fringes of the sociology of new international migration. By proposing a socio-anthropology of the migrations of Indonesian workers towards Malaysia and Singapore, this book shows that they nevertheless play a key role in the transformation of the societies of Southeast Asia and the globalisation of regional economies. From an ethnographic approach, Loïs Bastide captures these movements as close as possible to the actors, without renouncing to describe their social, political, cultural and historical contexts. It thus highlights transnational spaces linked to the practices of this "global precariat": while societies are opening up under the effect of migration, lives now take place on a transnational scale. Understanding these transformations today requires describing different ways of living in the transnational.
