dc.description.abstractThis thesis works to illuminate the hidden abuse of migrant domestic workers in Malaysia and analyze ways to better protect and promote their rights as workers, wom-en, and humans, deserving of dignity and respect. Though the path of migration of these women from Cambodia to Malaysia is often viewed as one of voluntary relocation for employment, I aim to reframe the process as one that, all too often, involves practices of human trafficking and results in situations of isolated, forced labor and conditions of slavery. Throughout my research I use a human rights framework to move away from the use of a victimizing lens to describe the vulnerable women, and consider instead issues of empowerment, humanization, and reclamation of personal agency.en_US
