The men and women in this oral history collection reveal the human rights abuses occurring behind the scenes of the global economy. These narrators-- including phone manufacturers in China, copper miners in Zambia, garment workers in Bangladesh, and farmers around the world-- reveal the secret history of the things we buy, including lives and communities devastated by low wages, environmental degradation, and political repression.
