Abstract
This paper explores the effects of globalization on female migrant workers as well as their families. Since the mid-1900s, an invisible crisis has been occurring: the exploitation of migrant women and the suffering of their children. With particular reference to the edited volume, Global Woman: Nannies, Maids, and Sex Workers in the New Economy, I examine the consequences of this abuse, the ramifications of maternal severance, and potential solutions for protecting female migrant workers and their children.
