Sweatshops, labor rights, and comparative advantage
Oregon Review of International Law 10 (1):149--188 (2008)
| Abstract | A normatively appropriate response to the exploitation of sweatshop labor in developing countries should center on labor rights. Satisfactorily secured labor rights will help workers to craft adequate compensation packages and workplace standards that keep them safe while allowing them to compete effectively in the global marketplace. Labor rights provide a more flexible and economically reasonable alternative to trade barriers as sources of protection for workers. | |||||||||
