The keys to global business success, as taught by a T-shirt's
journey
The Travels of a T-Shirt in the Global Economy is a
critically-acclaimed narrative that illuminates the globalization
debates and reveals the key factors to success in global business.
Tracing a T-shirt's life story from a Texas cotton field to a
Chinese factory and back to a U.S. storefront before arriving at
the used clothing market in Africa, the book uncovers the political
and economic forces at work in the global economy. Along the way,
this fascinating exploration addresses a wealth of compelling
questions about politics, trade, economics, ethics, and the impact
of history on today's business landscape. This new printing of the
second edition includes a revised preface and a new epilogue with
updates through 2014 on the people, industries, and policies
related to the T-shirt's life story.
Using a simple, everyday T-shirt as a lens through which to
explore the business, economic, moral, and political complexities
of globalization in a historical context, Travels
encapsulates a number of complex issues into a single identifiable
object that will strike a chord with readers as they:
* Investigate the sources of sustained competitive advantage in
different industries
* Examine the global economic and political forces that explain
trade patters between countries
* Analyze complex moral issues related to globalization and
international business
* Discover the importance of cultural and human elements in
international trade
This story of a simple product illuminates the many complex
issues which businesspeople, policymakers, and global citizens are
touched by every day.
