Abstract

Abstract International labor migrants have been widely studied, particularly on land. However, this anthropological research aims to shed light on the working and living conditions of labor migrants at sea, in the longline fishing industry on the Pacific Ocean based out of Honolulu, Hawaii. When working on a fishing boat, labor migrants encounter two distinct working environments: at port and in international waters. This report will focus on the second of these, a place impossible to monitor and therefore where labor laws have little sway. Rather, the captain plays an integral and important role when it comes to how these workers are treated, and as regards the quality of their working and living conditions.
国际劳工移民:太平洋延绳钓金枪鱼
摘要国际劳工移民已被广泛研究,特别是在陆地上。然而,这项人类学研究旨在揭示夏威夷火奴鲁鲁太平洋延绳捕鱼业中海上劳工移民的工作和生活条件。在渔船上工作时,劳工移民会遇到两种不同的工作环境:港口和国际水域。本报告将重点关注其中的第二个地方,这个地方无法监控,因此劳动法几乎没有影响力。相反,船长在如何对待这些工人以及他们的工作和生活条件方面发挥着不可或缺的重要作用。

期刊介绍: Asian Anthropology seeks to bring interesting and exciting new anthropological research on Asia to a global audience. Until recently, anthropologists writing on a range of Asian topics in English but seeking a global audience have had to depend largely on Western-based journals to publish their works. Given the increasing number of indigenous anthropologists and anthropologists based in Asia, as well as the increasing interest in Asia among anthropologists everywhere, it is important to have an anthropology journal that is refereed on a global basis but that is editorially Asian-based. Asian Anthropology is editorially based in Hong Kong, Taiwan, and Japan, but welcomes contributions from anthropologists and anthropology-related scholars throughout the world with an interest in Asia, especially East Asia as well as Southeast and South Asia. While the language of the journal is English, we also seek original works translated into English, which will facilitate greater participation and scholarly exchange. The journal will provide a forum for anthropologists working on Asia, in the broadest sense of the term "Asia". We seek your general support through submissions, subscriptions, and comments.
