It is widely acknowledged that immigration policy limits the capacity of migrant workers to integrate into their host society. Much attention has been paid to these limitations and their consequences in the Global North. But a wide range of migrants also live and work in countries in the Global South, where governments tend to lack the institutional capacity to enforce rights. In this class we discuss, how national labour law and industrial relations systems are rarely used to address rights violations involving migrant workers there. The course is divided into three parts: 1) topics present a different lens for making sense of the rights violations and how they limit migrant workers’ capacity to integrate; 2) topics focus on rights issues that are particular to certain groups of migrants; and 3) topics apply acquired knowledge to national contexts in both the global north and south.
