Clothed in Integrity de Barbara Paleczny

Clothed in Integrity: Studies in Women & Religion

Autor Barbara Paleczny
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 31 oct 2000
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.
