Machine generated contents note:
The book is a comparative study of the working conditions of domestic workers around the world, based on the EU-funded DomEQUAL research project conducted in nine countries in Europe, South America, and Asia. The book explores the campaigns that domestic workers are conducting to improve their labor rights and the ways in which their movements represent the interests of marginalized social groups. The study highlights the importance of intersectionality in the organization of these movements and their ability to challenge the subjectification of domestic workers. The book provides valuable insights into the challenges facing domestic workers and the strategies they are using to resist exploitation and discrimination. It will be useful for scholars, policy makers, and activists who are interested in understanding the conditions of domestic workers and the movements fighting for their rights. Overall, the book presents a comprehensive and ambitious analysis of the domestic workers' movements globally and their impact on labor rights.
