How can America's information technology (IT) industry predict serious labor shortages while at the same time laying off tens of thousands of employees annually? The answer is the industry's flexible labor management system--a flexibility widely regarded as the modus operandi of global capitalism today. Global "Body Shopping" explores how flexibility and uncertainty in the IT labor market are constructed and sustained through concrete human actions. Drawing on in-depth field research in southern India and in Australia, and folding an ethnography into a political economy examination, Xiang Biao offers a richly detailed analysis of the India-based global labor management practice known as "body shopping." In this practice, a group of consultants--body shops--in different countries works together to recruit IT workers. Body shops then farm out workers to clients as project-based labor; and upon a project's completion they either place the workers with a different client or "bench" them to await the next placement. Thus, labor is managed globally to serve volatile capital movement. Underpinning this practice are unequal socioeconomic relations on multiple levels. While wealth in the New Economy is created in an increasingly abstract manner, everyday realities--stock markets in New York, benched IT workers in Sydney, dowries in Hyderabad, and women and children in Indian villages--sustain this flexibility.

In a matter of months, he grew from a dorky beanpole into a hulking behemoth, showing off his rock hard muscles first on the streets of New York City and then alongside his colorful gym-rat friends in strip clubs and in the homes of the gotham elite. It was a swinging time, when "Would you like to dance?" turned into "Your place or mine?" and the guys with the muscles had all the ladies -- until their bodies, like Solotaroff''s, completely shut down. But this isn't the gloom-and-doom addiction one might expect -- Solotaroff looks back at even his lowest points with a wicked sense of humor, and he sends up the disco era and its excess with all the kaleidoscopic detail of Boogie Nights or Saturday Night Fever. Written with candor and sarcasm, The Body Shop is a memoir with all the elements of great fiction and dazzlingly displays Paul Solotaroff's celebrated writing talent.

Our shop sells any necessary human parts you need, or give one stop service to you for the transplanting of the things you've purchased. Or you may have these parts transplanted in any shop you like. One thing to remember is if you purchase a thing and the service of having it transplanted at our shop, you have the full guarantee. On the other hand, if you have it transplanted in another shop, we give no guarantee to any consequences for that, or for any mishaps on the transportation. This is the thumb rule of our shop. We have a variety of goods available in our shop. These can be grouped into two: the natural organs, entrails and parts taken from the human body; and the artificial machine parts. The former things are a bit complicated in the sense that the second hand parts used, cut and cleaned after purchasing the bids of corpses; and the new products manufactured through the aid of cloning research. The human parts purchased from the bids of corpses are the cheapest. They are cheap, but they are deceptive. What I mean is when a person dies, the mortuary in-charge usually asks the question to the bereaved family if they want a traditional way of burial service or if they want to dispose the dead body for a sale of bid. If the family makes a choice of the second type, the mortuary in-charges make contact with us, shopkeepers of human parts shops. Sometimes, the bids go high in competition as there is a great demand. So some shops cut out the limbs and parts of the bodies, put some polishing on these, and cheat the customers, the poor victims. I am not bragging about my shop. We never sell such things at all. Reputation about the quality of goods and due prices is more important than profit making. In order to do that, we have to exercise our brains.
