Evaluation Resources

Two documents I could use for my evaluative essay are:

"Remarks by Nisha Varia" from "Proceeding of the Annual Meeting (American Society of International Law)"
This document contains the findings of human rights activist Nisha Varia based of several years of experience living in the Middle East, conducting "fact-finding investigations" and interacting with government officials. This document provides evidence of how migrant domestic workers are mistreated not only by their employers but also by the governments of the countries in which they work.

"Policing Housemaids - The Criminalization of Domestic Workers in Bahrain"
This article explores how the justice system in Bahrain mistreats migrant domestic workers and remarks on how their working conditions tie in with "discourse on modern-day slavery." This article provides a specific example of how migrant domestic workers are treated by their employers and the government of the nation in which they work.
