About
"Thorough 1992 study adds much to our understanding of cross-border textile industries: variation, because it focuses on Guatemala and includes the candy industry; depth, because it ranges from the global economic context, to national developmental challenges, to industrial sectors and firms, to structured interviews, especially with female workers; and balance. Of special interest: the maquilas' global linkages, women's interview comments, and union-organizing efforts"--Handbook of Latin American Studies, v. 57.
