Drawing upon Guy Standing's notion of the precariat, the book conducts an in-depth examination of the ways in which exploitative employment relationships contribute to various pressures and insecurities among migrant workers, while simultaneously limiting their ability to safeguard their rights and well-being. Through extensive empirical research on migrant construction workers and their recruiters in Dhaka, the capital of Bangladesh and one of the fastest-growing cities globally, the book explores the intricate connections between rural-urban labor migration, recruitment, and the emergence of precarious employment. By unpacking these interconnections, The Construction Precariat offers novel insights into the field of labor migration, shedding light on the dominance of recruiters as a catalyst for the production of hyper-individualized employment relationships. Moreover, it sheds light on the profound ways in which this relationship of domination and dependence contributes heavily to the conditions of precariousness and the control and exploitation of migrant workers.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis book, situated within the realm of neoliberalism and precarious work, delves into the critical role of recruiting individuals as the primary drivers of labor recruitment and management practices that perpetuate precarious work conditions.
