This book investigates the success story of the fast fashion
industry-mainly owned by Chinese migrants-in Prato, Italy. It
outlines how Prato has become the center of a value chain
stretching from suppliers in China and Turkey all the way to buyers
in Europe. Despite this, a policy attacking Chinese
entrepreneurship has been devised and implemented in Prato. This
volume analyzes said policy against the crisis of Prato's textile
industry. Based on the author's 15 years of fieldwork in Prato, the
book sheds light on the entangled processes of city making and the
restructuring processes linked to capital accumulation by tackling
issues of governance, territory, migration, division of labor,
labor mobility, housing, and human rights.
