Includes an introductory essay which chronicles and discusses the impact of the pandemic on the migrant worker population, and in so doing, provides rhizomatic linkages to the issues foregrounded in the selected research papers. Presents newly written reflections accompanying each chapter that provide a concise introduction to the main themes and findings of the paper and offer a useful roadmap to readers as they engage with each research article. Features illustrations of a poem "The Death of Wishes" penned by a migrant worker confined to his dormitory as part of COVID-19's quarantine procedures"--
