Globalization and Its Impact on the Italian Fashion Industry
With new global processes affecting the fashion industry at a global level, everything has changed in the Italian fashion industry, especially since the 1980s. Antonella Ceccagno investigates and addresses three major global shifts in the fashion industry: the rise of low labor cost competitors, the restructuring of the distribution chain, and the emergence of a global fast fashion.
Moreover, and crucially, she shows that over the last 30 years, Italian immigration laws have been clearly and overtly devised with the aim of helping the Italian industrial system to find cheap labor. These laws were also crucial in increasing migrants’ vulnerability and forging divisions and stratification among migrants and within migrants sharing the same national background.
