ANNOTATION:
The resource we had was really short and gave information on sweat shops and the downfalls. though its accurate not much information is given. its barely half a page of information. Main points being sweat shops and their conditions, countries that were involved, and the history. It is not up to date and mostly of the 1990's. The section does not go in depth. its get to the main points and the sweat shop labor. one advantage being, it gives other references for research. Second, is that its a reputabale source.
