The resurgence of sweatshops affects the working poor in both first- and third-world countries. Paleczny assesses the responsibility of transnational retailers for unacceptable wages and working conditions and describes historic shifts in the global context of garment production. After exploring systemic causes of poverty, relevant policy setting, and ethical foundations, Paleczny introduces both short- and long-range possibilities for transformation, emphasizing the collaborative nature of work. Clothed in Integrity draws on feminist studies, alternative economics, and the ethical foundations proposed by Bernard Lonergan to fashion a constructive work in which Paleczny connects issues of societal meanings and values, moral imperatives, and economic feasibility. With candour, she shares personal stories of engagement in coalition work. Those who dwell on this text will find information, challenges, and inspiration to nurture their reflection, research, dialogue, and action. 410 0$aEtudes sur les femmes et la religion ;$vno 6. 606 $aClothing trade$xMoral and ethical aspects 606 $aWomen clothing workers$zOntario$zToronto 606 $aHome labor$zOntario$zToronto 606 $aChristian ethics 606 $aFeminist theology 615 0$aClothing trade$xMoral and ethical aspects. 615 0$aWomen clothing workers 615 0$aHome labor 615 0$aChristian ethics. 615 0$aFeminist theology. 676 $a261.8/5 700 $aPaleczny$b Barbara$01716472 712 02$aCanadian Corporation for Studies in Religion. 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910825234603321 996 $aClothed in integrity$94111814 997 $aUNINA
