Abstract

In this chapter the motivations and dreams of female migrant domestic workers in London, Berlin and Istanbul are identified through their own narratives. Although the reasons for their migrations ranged from war, political conflict to family unification or for a better future, education and learning a respectable language or because of fear of sexual oppression, they had all ended up working as domestic carers. The interviewee’s trajectories were overwhelmingly marked by downward mobility and ending up in poorly paid low-status work, namely domestic works.

In a dozen and more places, Marx repeats this fundamental property of productive labour: ‘Only labour which is directly transformed into capital is productive’ (IV/1, 393). ‘From the capitalist standpoint only that labour is productive which creates a surplus-value’ (IV/1, 153). ‘Productive labour, in its meaning for capitalist production, is wage-labour which, exchanged against the variable part of capital…reproduces not only this part of capital (or the value of its own labour-power), but in addition produces surplus value for the capitalist’ (IV/1, 152 quoted by Gough 2013: 50, 51), see (Gough 2013). ‘Marx’s theory of productive and unproductive labour’ New left review, I(76). pp. 4772
