From Scribd’s Review: “In Neutral Accent<\/em>, A. Aneesh employs India’s call centers as useful sites for studying global change.

In his interviews with call service workers and in his own work in a call center in the high tech metropolis of Gurgoan, India, Aneesh observed the difficulties these workers face in bridging cultures, laws, and economies: having to speak in an accent that does not betray their ethnicity, location, or social background; learning foreign social norms; and working graveyard shifts to accommodate international customers.” Read more on Scribd<\/em><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
