Description
This book analyzes the ways in which class identities are forged and contested through the practices and discourses of domestic service, which, is central to middle-class domesticity in Vietnam today. Domestic workers experiences reveal negotiations with class boundaries actively set by the urban middle class, who seek distinction through emerging notions and practices of domesticity, and this book reveals how these boundaries are ridden with gender and class anxiety, partly because of the very struggles and contestations of the workers.
