ABSTRACT
Fourteen-year-olds, from Bangladesh to the Mexican maquila, working fourteen-hour days, in factories that reek of toxic fumes.Young women supporting families on some twenty cents an hour. Factory managers who forbid sick workers time off to go to the doctor. Bosses in El Monte, California, and elsewhere, who have, quite literally, turned factories into prisons, forcibly detaining workers in sweatshops surrounded by barbed wire.
