Abstract This essay examines Shailja Patel’s 2010 book, Migritude, and its framing of human value in feminist terms and from the vantage point of nonwestern migrants rather than Western human rights activists and investors. I argue that, through the material and affective legacy of the sari, Patel takes up neoliberal rhetorics of globalization and market-based forms of human value in order to reveal their violence, divest them of meaning and power, and imagine an alternative model of worth based in what she calls “care economies,” the work of repair and regeneration undertaken (often invisibly) by those most affected by violence and abuses of power.

纱丽劝告:Shailja Patel's Migritude 中的移民关怀经济

摘要 本文从非西方移民而非西方人权活动家和投资者的角度,审视了 Shailja Patel 2010 年出版的著作《移民》及其以女权主义术语构建的人类价值框架。我认为,通过纱丽的物质和情感遗产,帕特尔接受了全球化和基于市场的人类价值形式的新自由主义修辞,以揭示它们的暴力,剥夺它们的意义和权力,并想象另一种价值模式以她所谓的“护理经济”为基础,由那些受暴力和滥用权力影响最严重的人进行的修复和再生工作(通常是无形的)。
