Book Discussion: Reverse Subsidies in Global Monopsony Capitalism

It utilizes the concept of reverse subsidies as the purchase of gendered labour and environmental services below their costs of production in garment value chains in India and other garment producing countries.

Join the Zolberg Institute in welcoming authors Dev Nathan and Shikha Silliman Bhattacharjee to discuss these topics and their new book Reverse Subsidies in Global Monopsony Capitalism: Gender, Labour, and Environmental Injustice in Garment Value Chains.
