Tiivistelmä: | Disputes on 'sweatshop' labour (hereafter as: s-shop-lab.) practices are at the core of contemporary debates regarding globalization. Critics seek regulations (here as: regs.) restricting the use of s-shop-lab., whereas economists retort that such regs. will harm the world's poor. This article develops a new account of positive ethical deviancy arguing that this view is preferable to other recent accounts of positive deviancy (here as: pos-dev.) in the literature. The concept of pos-dev. is applied to global labour practices, using recent field studies of multinational corporation (MNC) factories in developing nations as a basis for arguing that MNCs are capable of voluntarily respecting the basic rights of workers while remaining economically competitive. |
