Abstract
The type of labor systems that emerged in particular sectors in Southeast Asia originated in the strategies and capacities of states, firms, workers, and other actors as they socially constructed such systems. Not all these groups determined the nature and diverse outcomes of this social process, namely, the way in which both the benefits of success and the burdens of failure were shared. As such, changes in labor processes were a result of the dynamic interplay between global capitalism, the type of products/ services produced for the international economy, and the availability of manpower.
