Summary: Even if you think you know........
Comment: What is the Anti-Sweatshop Movement? How to work for social justice? This compact and highly readible book is filled with a wealth of information and workable strategies. Written by an incisive and expert author/journalist, Liza Featherstone, and voices of USAS activists in the movement from across the U.S, they address these pressing questions.
The book presents a nicely woven analysis and plenty of concrete and heart wrentching examples that amply illustrate what kind of plague global corporate dynamics are imposing on much of the world, and, most importantly, what to do about it. The book describes who is the USAS and what they are all about, how they are fighting back and making significant gains, and how to plug in. The author (and the USAS) does not flinch from grappling with complex issues: how to do local work and link it to powerful global dynamics and actors; how to draw upon past activism and how to move beyond it; how to deal with thorny issues--such as racial dynmanics, ideology, and other potentially divisive issues in any movement--as they play out in the USAS.
In short, this is a must read for anyone interested in the forces and faces changing our world today.
