This paper poses a critique of globalization discourse through an examination of Philippine migration ethnography. With the dramatic increase in scale in the mid-1980s, Philippine gendered labour migration has been subjected to scrutiny by academics & other protagonists raising the possibility of a critical Philippine transnational politics. However, the relatively new ethnographic literature explores the constrained labour process of domestic service work & cultural practices which condition migrants for exploitation. Class issues remain largely unexplored in this literature for theoretical & methodological reasons. Here, multisited research enables the mapping of contradictions of class & consumption associated with the normalization of migration in Philippine society & politics. The complexities of production & consumption surround the migration industry are also discussed. 48 References. Adapted from the source document.
