Funded Activity Summary

The Clothing Industry in the Asia Pacific: Managing Constant Change. The dynamics of the garment industry have been central to industrialisation. This study will be the first examination of the changing nature of clothing manufacture. By tracing regional and international networks, and connecting them to patterns of legal and illegal movements of businesses, goods, money and people, it will show how changes in transnational business affect daily working life. It will highlight the outcome of trade liberalisation on the Asia Pacific, and contribute to safe-guarding Australia by providing a better understanding of the insecurities created by this rapidly changing industry.
