This book portrays the scene where corporate international trade agreements, a new neoliberal state regime, and a growing textile market have contributed to the becoming of a new class of Muslim female workers—who labor in Bangladesh’s apparel export factories under conditions of neoliberal capitalism. The garment kormi—often abstracted by the homogenizing category of the “garment worker”—remain lost in the statistics of development and empowerment or contrarily exploitation. Thereby, focusing on the everyday lives of garment kormi, i.e., workers’ stories than on the collective of garment workers as a category, this book at one front highlights the neoliberal structures of difference and inequality, and on the other reflects on the potential of egalitarianism and change in terms of novel ways of comprising and expressing life-worlds. It shows that the values in life and the structures that govern life, such as contemporary Bangladesh’s neoliberal order, kinship relationality, and religiosity, are co-constitutive, multi-layered, and always on the move, never fixed.

Dispelling stereotypes about garment workers in the global apparel industry Castoffs of Capital examines how female garment workers experience their work and personal lives within the stranglehold of global capital. Drawing on fieldwork in Bangladesh, anthropologist Lamia Karim focuses attention onto the lives of older women aged out of factory work, heretofore largely ignored, thereby introducing a new dimension to the understanding of a female-headed workforce that today numbers around four million in Bangladesh. Bringing a feminist labor studies lens, Castoffs of Capital foregrounds these women not only as workers but as mothers, wives, sisters, lovers, friends, and political agents. Focusing on relations among work, gender, and global capital’s targeting of poor women to advance its market penetration, Karim shows how women navigate these spaces by adopting new subject formations. She locates these women’s aspirations for the “good life” not only in material comforts but also in their longings for love and sexual fulfillment that help them momentarily forget the precarity of their existence under the shadow of capital. Through richly detailed ethnographic studies, this innovative and beautifully written book examines the making and unmaking of these women’s wants and desires, loves and tribulations, hopes and despairs, and triumphs and struggles.

In Bangladesh, around 4 million garment workers are working in more than five thousand garment factories all around the country. Most of the factories are situated in Dhaka and Chittagong divisions in Bangladesh along with the membership of BGMEA (Bangladesh Garment Manufacturers and Exports Association) and BKMEA (Bangladesh Knitwear Manufacturers and Exports Association). Among these garments, there are compliant garments that follow the code of conduct of workers' rights, and the rest of them are non-compliant garments that often violate the code of conduct of workers' rights. In this particular scenario, workers' have different experiences in their workplaces, which has significant impacts on their lifestyle.This study explores to understand garments workers' lifestyles briefly, through conducting qualitative interviews with 55 garment workers (32 workers were female and 23 workers were male) from 40 different garments in 6 different groups. In this report, we discuss the several areas of workers' life, which represent the scenarios of all garment workers, with the support of the literature review, and the analysis of quantitative and qualitative data. We identified the challenges and qualities of workers' daily life, and suggest a possible tool that might make their life easy and better.We examine five keynote areas of workers' life as social connectivity, financial stability, technology integration, job environment, and healthcare. The notable findings are:• The majority of the workers don't have a significant educational background; especially, female workers are lagging. These workers are migrated from low-income regions such as northern and southern regions of Bangladesh.• Workers have very good social connections with neighbors, co-workers, house owners, shop keepers, and local mobile financing agents.• Workers have a very low income, starting from BDT 8000/month (equivalent to USD 94.22) with numerous areas of expenses, including kids' education cost, monthly expenditures cost, house rent, etc. On the other hand, they struggle to save money on monthly basis with such expenses forlacking proper management of their salary where sometimes they make loans for expenses.• The adaptation of technology usage is very less in proportion to the availability of technology. They all are familiar with and have access to both feature phones and smartphones, and usage of basic calling applications is common.• Workers often struggle in getting a new job because of the traditional recruitment process. Apart from that, workers of non-compliant garments have several negative experiences while workers from compliant garments have very friendly and comfortable experiences in their workplaces.• The majority of the workers are not aware of personal healthcare and they avoid spending money on visiting doctors during their illness.To date, no such study explored these dimensions to understand the workers' life in a particular sector. This study comes up with a question that, do we able to support workers to get a better lifestyle? The findings of this report motivate us to suggest and design an easy user-friendly Bengali crowdsourcing platform that might reduce the basic daily complexities of the workers.

In this path-breaking study, social economist Naila Kabeer examines the lives of Bangladeshi garment workers in Bangladesh and Britain to shed light on the question of what constitutes "fair" competition in international trade. She argues that if the unhealthy coalition of multinationals and labor movements is truly seeking to improve the working conditions for women and children in the "Third World," as well as those of western workers, their efforts should be directed away from an attempt to impose labor standards and towards a support for the organization of labor rights. Any attempt to devise acceptable labor standards at an international level which takes no account of the forces of inclusion and exclusion with local labor movements is, she further argues, likely to represent the interests of the powerful at the expense of those of the weak.
