But which cultural, economic, and political infrastructures in the \"source\" countries make these types of migration possible in the first place?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eBased on multi-sensory ethnographic research in Nepal, Hannah Uprety retraces the practices of recruitment and instruction that—step by step—transform Nepali labour into an internationally marketable commodity.
