520 |a High-profile events such as the 2022 FIFA World Cup in Qatar have made one thing abundantly clear: Much of today's economic growth would be unthinkable without the low-wage employment of migrant workers. But which cultural, economic, and political infrastructures in the "source" countries make these types of migration possible in the first place?

In doing so, she uncovers a migration regime that effectively turns local men and women into "migrant workers" before they even leave the country.
