Story0
You can tell a great deal about the modern world by turning an everyday object over in your hands and reading the small print. A phone case, a kettle, a child’s toy, a set of headphones, a pack of socks, a kitchen timer, a car part, a rechargeable torch, a cable, a cheap drill, a Christmas decoration, a novelty mug, a watch strap, a hairdryer. The range is so ordinary that it becomes invisible. We barely register it anymore.

Story0
We’re standing on the edge of the biggest turnover the trades have ever seen. 1 in 4 people in the trades are retiring. Some reports suggest that for every 7 tradespeople who leave, only 1 enters the workforce. When knowledge leaves the site, it’s gone for good—unless we build systems to keep it. This is the conversation we’ve needed in the trades for years. Workers are retiring, and owners are closing businesses, taking a world of experience with them. Who is remaining to pick up the torch?

In Sweatshop Capital, Beth Robinson examines the brutal sweatshop labor conditions that produced American consumer goods from the late nineteenth through the early twenty-first centuries, as well as the labor and social movements that contested them. Arguing that sweatshop labor is a persistent feature of capitalism, she shows how manufacturers used both their influence in government and their mobility to sidestep US labor laws, maximize profits, and perpetuate abuses.
