Item type:Publication, The institutional limitations of emancipation: The inclusion of disabled employees in the Egyptian public context post COVID-19(Taylor & Francis, 2022-03-29)Drawing on 26 semi-structured in-depth interviews with disabled employees, this paper explores the work environment of disabled individuals in Egyptian public organizations and how it affects their feelings of emancipation. The findings show that institutional limitations translated into poor public policy implementation by the state and discriminatory organizational practices constitute major hurdles to the inclusiveness and empowerment of disabled employees. Particularly, we find that the weak law enforcement capacity of the state has led to poor policy implementation, and to a lack of institutional infrastructure that can support law implementation. Furthermore, poor organizational practices, such as the unavailability of health and education resources, fair selection and/or merit-based recruiting, and speech-related harassment have further amplified the negative experiences that people with disability encounter in the workplace. All of these factors limited the emancipatory feelings of disabled employees. Theoretical and practical implications are discussed at the end of the paper. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, From dead letter to functional policy? Domestic workers' rights and “disformality” in Peru(John Wiley and Sons Inc, 2024-09-01)This article examines the extent to which Peru's Law No. 31047/2020, which grants paid domestic workers full legal rights and social protection, has improved workers' access to contracts and rights. We analyse data from Peru's National Household Survey and present insights from interviews with five employers and a focus group of 11 workers. These complement statistical findings regarding the law's implementation, challenges and policy suggestions. We find that workers' rights have largely not been upheld owing to both the State's poor enforcement of the legislation and employer non-compliance, a situation enabled by Peru's socio-economic “disformality”. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, The Legal Construction of “Dangerous Others”: Immigration Law and Racial Profiling(2025-01-01)This article explores how immigration laws and enforcement practices contribute to racial profiling and the legal construction of certain immigrant groups as “dangerous others.” Using a descriptive analysis method, this narrative review synthesizes scholarly literature, legal case studies, and institutional reports published between 2021 and 2025. Sources were selected based on their relevance to racial profiling, immigration enforcement, and the legal framing of immigrants as threats. The analysis focused on identifying key historical patterns, contemporary enforcement mechanisms, and the discursive strategies used by institutions and political actors to justify racialized immigration control. A thematic framework guided the synthesis of findings, emphasizing how law, policy, media, and institutional practices intersect to construct and perpetuate the image of the “dangerous other.” The review reveals that immigration law has historically operated as a tool for racial exclusion, from early race-based exclusions to contemporary national security policies. Institutional actors such as ICE, police, and border authorities use surveillance technologies, discretionary enforcement, and legal categorization to disproportionately target racial and ethnic minorities. Media and political discourse further reinforce these constructions through language that dehumanizes immigrants and frames them as threats to public safety. Despite the persistence of these patterns, the article also identifies significant forms of resistance, including litigation, grassroots advocacy, and reform initiatives aimed at dismantling racialized enforcement structures and promoting immigrant justice. The construction of the “dangerous other” in immigration law is deeply embedded in legal, institutional, and discursive systems. Addressing this issue requires comprehensive legal reform, a reimagining of enforcement priorities, and continued efforts by advocates and scholars to expose and challenge racialized practices within immigration regimes.3 - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
