The Travels Of A T Shirt In The Global Economy by Pietra Rivoli
An Economist Examines the Markets, Power, and Politics of World Trade
A lively investigative narrative that follows a simple cotton T‑shirt through its global life cycle—from cotton fields and ginning mills to factories, retail markets, and the secondhand clothing trade—using the garment as a lens to explain international trade, economic policy, labor, and development; blending on-the-ground reporting, history, and economic analysis to show how market forces, government decisions, and individual choices create winners and losers in the global economy.
