Embodied Working Lives explores the work-a-day of seasonal migrant laborers in India through a nexus of embodiment theories to enhance our understanding of what constitutes the intense, lived, and physical experience of such work. Echoing constructive explorations of labor science (Bernard Doray) but in the sentiment and with the intense rigor of contemporary phenomenology and labor studies, Louise Waite gives us unique and original ethnographic research to help enhance our understanding of laboring bodies and the policies that effect them.
