[English] – Positions Politics published preliminary notes by Samia Dinkelaker and Ralf Ruckus on their ethnographic study among Indonesian migrant workers in Taiwan’s fishing and manufacturing industries. They "share how migrant workers describe their conditions," and they "introduce racialized capitalism as an analytical lens to understand the systematic differentiation and exploitation of Southeast Asian migrant workers and Taiwan’s racialized labor market."

[bahasa | english]– Pada 1 Maret 2020, pekerja migran domestik asal Indonesia, sekaligus penulis dan jurnalis bernama Yuli Riswati berbincang dengan Ralf Ruckus dan Alina Kornfeldt tentang keterlibatan yang kelihatan dan tak kasat dari para pekerja migran domestik dalam perjuangan Hong Kong. Walau kerja-kerja mereka telah menopang gerakan—belum lagi fungsi mereka dalam hidup sehari-hari—kepentingan mereka terabaikan dalam tuntutan demokrasi Hong Kong: https://lausancollective.com/2020/disebut-orang-hong-kong-atau-bukan-kami-tetap-bagian-dari-hong-kong/.
[bahasa | english] – On March 1, 2020, the migrant domestic worker and citizen journalist Yuli Riswati talked to Ralf Ruckus and Alina Kornfeldt about the (Indonesian) migrant domestic workers’ visible and invisible involvement in the Hong Kong opposition movement. Economic and social life in Hong Kong would not function without migrant domestic workers. Their labor also sustained the persistence of Hong Kong’s opposition movement, but their concerns hardly play any role in its demands for more democracy.
