Anotace knihy

"Expatriate Identities in Postcolonial Organisations" offers a timely and contemporary discussion of the role of organisations in maintaining or challenging structures and cultures based on racism and discrimination, through an exploration of the relations between whiteness, identity and organization in migratory contexts. With close attention to the experiences of expatriates in Hong Kong, and the ways in which new identities are constructed in the destinations of migration, it explores the renegotiation of white identities and racialised relationships, and the extent to which colonial imaginations still inform contemporary organisations as well as the manner in which both lifestyle migration and expatriation may maintain iniquitous racialised power relations. Drawing on existing theoretical and empirical material on post-colonialism, identity-making, privileged migration, relocation, transnational work and organisations, this volume brings disparate discussions together in a new and accessible way. As such, "Expatriate Identities in Postcolonial Organisations" will appeal to scholars across a range of social sciences, including social theory, the sociology of work and organisations, the sociology of race and ethnicity, as well as to those working in the fields of migration, gender studies, and cultural geography.
