About this product
Product Information
Over the last decade, the world's largest corporations - from The Coca Cola Company to Amazon, Apple to Unilever - have taken up the cause of combatting modern slavery. Yet, by most measures, across many sectors and regions, severe labour exploitation continues to soar. Corporate social responsibility is not working. Why? In this landmark book, Genevieve LeBaron lifts the lid on a labour governance regime that is severely flawed and limited. She takes a close-up look at the millions of corporate dollars spent on anti-slavery networks, NGO partnerships, lobbying for new transparency legislation, and investment in social auditing and ethical certification schemes, to show how such efforts serve to bolster corporate growth and legitimacy as well as government reputations, whilst failing to protect the world's most vulnerable workers. To eradicate modern slavery and human trafficking in global supply chains a new approach is needed; one that confronts corporate power and profits, dismantles exploitative business models, and regulates the booming private industry of accounting firms, social auditors, and consultants that has emerged to 'monitor' and 'enforce' labour standards. Only worker-driven initiatives that uphold fundamental rights can protect workers in the contemporary global economy and make forced labour a thing of the past.

Item description from the seller
Seller feedback (54,862)
- n***z (24)- Feedback left by buyer.Past monthVerified purchaseThe item was exactly as advertised, with no damage to the cover or pages. It was packed quite securely, with no chance to slip around and get bumped corners. The price was very affordable, considering it isn't easy to track down a copy. I only marked down one star because it took some time to ship out, which could have been better communicated in the listing. Still, highly recommend the seller.
- x***w (326)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseGreat communication, good price, as described, very well packed and quick delivery. Recommended seller.Sings The Alan Parsons Project That Never Was by Woolfson, Eric (#116248670093)
- i***c (13)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseArrived new, sealed, and well packaged. Slightly more expensive than most manga but it’s less common and available, especially brand new. (I paid $16, while other listings were well over $25 ‘used’ and without shipping costs included.) Well worth the price and free shipping. Shipping time was decent but order processing time could’ve been better. Otherwise no issues. Great seller communication. Overall a wonderful experience.High School DXD: Asia & Koneko's Secret Contract!? by Ichiei Ishibumi (#146069263733)
