Strategizing Against Sweatshops: The Global Economy, Student Activism, and Worker Empowerment - Brossura
Sinossi
For the past few decades, the U.S. anti-sweatshop movement was bolstered by actions from American college students. United Students Against Sweatshops (USAS) effectively advanced the cause of workers&; rights in sweatshops around the world. Strategizing against Sweatshops chronicles the evolution of student activism and presents an innovative model of how college campuses are a critical site for the advancement of global social justice. 
Matthew Williams shows how USAS targeted apparel companies outsourcing production to sweatshop factories with weak or non-existent unions. USAS did so by developing a campaign that would support workers organizing by leveraging their college&;s partnerships with global apparel firms like Nike and Adidas to abide by pro-labor codes of conduct. 
Strategizing against Sweatshops exemplifies how organizations and actors cooperate across a movement to formulate a coherent strategy responsive to the conditions in their social environment. Williams also provides a model of political opportunity structure to show how social context shapes the chances of a movement&;s success&;and how movements can change that political opportunity structure in turn. Ultimately, he shows why progressive student activism remains important.
