  • Labor contractors play crucial roles in managing labor supply while perpetuating precarious working conditions for migrants.
  • Racialization theory is used to highlight how stereotypes and narratives influence migrant labor dynamics.
  • The concept of enforced return showcases how deportability deepens the insecurity faced by migrant workers.
