Zusammenfassung
In diesem Kapitel wird erörtert, wie die Pflegearbeit am Beispiel der intensiven Produktion von Pflegekompetenzen auf den Philippinen zu einem Ort der Ausbeutung und des Kampfes wird. Schlechte Arbeitsbedingungen und illegale Beschäftigungsverhältnisse tragen dazu bei, die Praxis des philippinischen Staates zu legitimieren, die Mobilität von Pflegekräften zu erleichtern. Es wurden Diskurse über menschenwürdige Arbeit, Rückkehrmigration und Zirkulation vorgeschlagen, die sich jedoch bewusst auf die Nutzung des Humankapitals konzentrieren, von dem angenommen wird, dass es aus der internationalen Migration von Gesundheitspersonal gewonnen wird. Das Kapitel beleuchtet auch die Strategien von Krankenpflegeverbänden und zivilgesellschaftlichen Organisationen im Kampf gegen die neoliberale Umgestaltung der Arbeit, was unsere Aufmerksamkeit auf die zentrale Bedeutung der Pflege für das menschliche Leben und die Wahrung der Interessen der Arbeit gegenüber dem Kapital lenkt.

A significant event prompted this passage. In 1995, Flor Contemplacion, a Singapore-based domestic worker, was executed by the Singaporean administration for allegedly killing another Filipina domestic worker and the child in her custody. Contemplacion’s hanging infuriated Filipinos everywhere who believed that the Philippine government could have intervened on behalf of Contemplacion because she was a Filipino citizen and a migrant worker who is one of the country’s so-called ‘new national heroes.’ Following some mass protests, Philippine lawmakers were impelled to critically address the forms of rights and protections the state should extend to its citizens overseas.

It could be explained by the decline of the quality of nursing schools in which approximately 60% of nursing schools have a less than 50% passing rate on the national Nursing Board examination, hence rendering graduate nurses ineligible to practice the skill.
