[Book Talk] Migrant Workers and the Developmental State in the Philippines and South Korea

In this book talk, Suzy Lee (Binghamton University) traces the history of labor export programs in South Korea and the Philippines, offering explanations for why and how they diverged so dramatically and describing the multiple pathways through which migration can serve national development projects and the conditions under which different models succeed or fail.

Questioning Racial Binaries: Co-Ethnic Racialisation, Intersectionality, and Immigration Hierarchies in East Asia

This lecture by Elaine Lynn-Ee Ho (National University of Singapore) advances contemporary scholarship on ethnicity, migration, and racialisation by examining new dynamics of racism that complicate the conventional white/Other binary often referenced in Western migrant-receiving societies. Drawing on migration trends in East Asia, including Singapore, China, Japan, and South Korea, the lecture foregrounds co-ethnic racialisation and intersectionality as critical frameworks for understanding the way that intersecting social categories shape migrant identities and produce “polysemic immigration hierarchies."
