Manage episode 379588601 series 3520025
Inequality. Hyperglobalization. Historical legacies. Global value chains. Corporate social responsibility. Buyer-driven commodity. Many terms are used in the context of the garment industry in Bangladesh. The terms used depend on who speaks on the subject. In this podcast, the voice is given to journalist, dedicated activist, and labour rights defender, Saydia Gulrukh, representing the activist movement in Bangladesh. In conversation with Luc Bitterli, MSc in Development Studies, whose time with SwissConnect in Dhaka, Bangladesh developed a keen interest in this industry and through the episode works to unravel its historical nuances and socio-political underpinnings.
