Downwardly Global: Women, Work, and Citizenship in the Pakistani Diaspora
Lalaie Ameeriar
Lalaie Ameeriar follows the experiences of immigrant Pakistani women in Toronto who—despite being skilled, white-collar workers—suffer high levels of unemployment and poverty and who are advised by government-sanctioned worker programs to conform to an embodied form of multiculturalism that privileges whiteness and erases difference.
