I want to look at patterns of immigration in the neoliberal era and how they are rationalized and demonized. I am particularly interested in migrants doing care work and how that has becom the gender dynamics of how that sphere has become a market. I will look into writings on labor immigration and care work, and I will further refine my ideas as I look further. I seek to answer the questions: How do patterns of contemporary migrations relate to patterns of colonization in the western hegemonic view? How do people reconcile neoliberal contradictions with their everyday lives?<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Comments:\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>This is an interesting topic, Jackie. And yes you will need to narrow down your focus. A couple of questions:<\/p>\n<p>1- Do you want to look at care work done by immigrants in the US? If that&#8217;s the case, it might be interesting to look at immigrants&#8217; home countries as well (e.g. Philippines). Just an idea\/<\/p>\n<p>2- What aspects of neoliberalism are you intending to focus on? what do you mean by &#8220;neoliberal contradictions&#8221;? \u00a0You can go back to Harvey&#8217;s book and see if there are certain themes in that book which would be related to your topic.<\/p>\n<p>I do not know if you&#8217;ve taken Prof. Lopez immigration course but you can always ask him for recommendations for sources. I am attaching an article here which I hope would help you frame your final project.
