"There are few discussions specifically about passports among migrant workers, so this is a very welcome contribution and important investigation."--Gordon Mathews, author of Ghetto at the Center of the World: Chungking Mansions, Hong Kong "Passport Entanglements is a necessary and concrete intervention in critical studies of mobility and migration.
