摘要

The paper contributes to scholarship on family farm, social reproduction, and labor migration theories. It argues that the emergence of wage labor within the family farm labor structure - and its transformation across time, place, and space - has shifted the traditional spaces where production and social reproduction functions typically occur. This shift is enabled by a self-exploitation mechanism internal to the family farm. When situated at the national border in the context of cross-border wage work, multiple fears associated with the “illegal foreign worker” identity constructed around Vietnamese laborers open the internal sphere of struggle for new actors (i.e., labor brokers and foremen) and labor hirers to manipulate for further capitalist accumulation.
