- Description
- Klein shows in this book, that contemporary feminism, once 'disrobed' from the rhetorical garb of eauality with men, is laid bare as having a single-minded political agenda - the achievement of privilege over men. This goal, it is argued, is blatantly inconsistent with any reasonable notion of equality, and creates an insidious sexism apparent in the behavior of feminists themselves. In the final analysis, Klein urges readers to embrace a productive and healthy account of justice, merit and overall human excellence.

- Description
- This book introduces us to survivors of human trafficking who are struggling to get by and make homes for themselves in the United States.The book links firsthand accounts to global economic inequities and under-regulated and unprotected workplaces that routinely exploit migrant laborers in the United States. Brennan contends that today's punitive immigration policies undermine efforts to fight trafficking. While many believe trafficking happens only in the sex trade, Brennan shows that across low-wage labor sectors—in fields, in factories, and on construction sites—widespread exploitation can lead to and conceal forced labor.
