Abstract: This article reports on my experience teaching Sweatshops and the Global Economy. It describes exercises in political economy for engaging students in the study of sweatshops. Also taken up are my efforts to involve students in the debate among economists about sweatshops and the antisweatshop movement, an analysis of the place of sweatshops in the process of globalization, and efforts to end sweatshop abuse.
