Introduction

This chapter introduces the constellation of figures that make up the global Filipina body—the mail-order bride, the sex worker / trafficked woman, and the domestic helper / overseas contract worker—as the embodiment of racialized and gendered labor that the Philippine nation provides for a global capitalist economy. Within Filipina/o diasporic cultural production, the global Filipina body represents the failure of the heteropatriarchal Philippine nation under neoliberal globalization. Situating this book within the overlapping fields of Philippine studies, Filipina/o American studies, transnational feminisms, and queer studies, this chapter argues that the queering of the figure of the global Filipina body allows for a queer and feminist engagement with the politics of nationalism(s) in the context of the diaspora.

Perempuan dianggap lebih mudah diatur dan tidak banyak melakukan protes. Perlakuan ini tentunya dapat merugikan perempuan, sehingga tidak jarang perempuan diperlakukan tidak adil, karena dianggap tidak memahami hak-hak pekerja yang diatur di dalam UU Ketenagakerjaan.
