The authors examine developments in labor standards in global
supply chains over the past thirty years, analyzing factors that
create challenges and opportunities for improving working
conditions. They illustrate the complex dynamics within and among
key groups, including brands, suppliers, governments, workers and
consumers. Using extended examples from China, Honduras, Bangladesh
and the United States, as well as new quantitative evidence, the
authors analyze stakeholders and mechanisms that create or obstruct
opportunities for improving labor rights. They evaluate key
clusters of actors and their interests in order to comprehensively
map the complex interactions and relationships that make up global
supply chains. Original data and analyses, including four in-depth
case studies, present a systematic evaluation of the points of
leverage for changing labor standards in sectors including apparel,
footwear, and electronics. This exciting new contribution to a
burgeoning field of study will benefit scholars of labor rights and
human rights, as well as students with an interest in labor and
working conditions. It also presents critical information for
political scientists, NGOs, and practitioners looking to effect
change in working conditions and learn more about key players in
the global economy.
