在全球資本的流動下，跨國勞力遷移成為當前社會中越來越熟悉的場景，但是因為制度、法令或是其他因素，而衍生出在不同國家與不同行業中遷移勞動者的不同狀況。本中心邀請了幾個長期在不同領域為移工議題努力的團體，一起來分享目前跨國移工在台灣所面臨的難題，以及各個團體對於出路的思考。我們也邀請到了泰國長期研究跨國勞力遷移的學者Sudarat Musikawong，以及韓國長期記錄移工運動的紀錄片導演Jongman Choi，一起來分享泰國與韓國的跨國遷移勞力的現況。
臺灣的遠洋漁業產值豐厚，實力與技術名列全球之首，而業者為追求更高利潤，時常將船隻註冊於不同國家，船隻便能歸屬他國管轄。這些「權宜船」成為了法律監管的漏洞，船隻上的外籍漁工更面臨人口販運、強迫勞動等重重危機。因此，對非我國籍漁船進行管制，成為解決海上人權危機的重要議題。權宜船雖未掛上我國船旗，但在這些船隻入港後，身為港口國的臺灣，在法律上仍有介入之措施與可能性，本系列工作坊之第一場次，楊名豪老師就臺灣面對權宜船上的人權問題提出對策和與會者進行討論。
暫時性跨國移工具有雙重身分——既是勞工、也是外國人。身為勞工，其勞動條件理應與本國勞工一樣受到平等保障；然而，身為外國人，亦受到國境與移民管制的影響，移民管制的核心之一便是藉保護國內勞動市場之名，以限縮外國人之就業權利而形成差別待遇，如何面對勞動保護與國境管制兩者之間的張力？在「法律、人權與跨國勞動力流動」主題工作坊系列第二場次，楊雅雯助研究員將分析臺灣的國境管制對移工就業條件的影響，提出平衡兩者的對策，歡迎與會者一同進行討論。
This webinar is a legal and practical discussion on the link between statelessness and labour exploitation. It is a timely examination of the legal concept of “citizenship”, as well as a discussion on the advocacy avenues available, both nationally and at the UN, to bring more awareness on the human rights situation of the world’s stateless population.
依據移民法第16條第4項的規定「中華民國一百零五年六月二十九日以前入國之印度或尼泊爾地區無國籍人民，未能強制其出國，且經蒙藏事務主管機關組成審查會認定其身分者，移民署應許可其居留。」這些無國籍者的身份查驗與認定，台灣的政府採取的是來台持有的護照認定，而忽略了難民在前入國的生活以及人權的議題。
本工作坊將針對當前滯台藏人向台灣政府提出訴訟的個案，邀請相關的法律人士、協助處理的NGO組織代表、台灣國家人權委員會的委員、以及在台藏人分別從難民生活的處境、公民身份的多元性、人權議題等面向，呈顯當前台灣法律面對難民審理的限制，並思考如何從這些案例促進台灣對難民人權的保護。
This webinar delves into the rapidly evolving landscape of outsourcing recruitment systems and human trafficking within the labor supply chain, highlighting the recent cases of scamming operations in Southeast Asian countries, including Cambodia, Indonesia, the Philippines, Thailand, Myanmar, and Taiwan. These illicit activities suggest pervasive corruption among senior officials and involve transnational recruitment networks linking local businesspeople with organized crime. The stark reality of violence and labor exploitation represents a disturbing trend. The session aims to explore how advancements in cyber connectivity and data mining operations have facilitated new methods of human trafficking and severe forms of forced labor, and to consider the extent to which these illegal activities are conducted within legally ambiguous zones.
Through this workshop, we intend to examine the profound changes and critical challenges in the complex geopolitical landscape of Asia and the wider world, including conflicts, inequities, and the enduring impacts of colonial power relations. Our focus is on understanding these dynamics in a global context and investigating their contemporary significance.
This two-day event will primarily explore conceptual frameworks and methodologies for studying inequality. It will particularly focus on migrant labor, human trafficking, indigeneity, statelessness, and the role of the political economy of capitalism in shaping social inequalities in Asian countries and the global South during the 21st century. Additionally, the workshop will investigate potential projects related to alternative relationality and solidarities from below.
