Review A Coat of Many Colors: Immigration, Globalization, and Reform in New York City's Garment Industry / Fordham University Press:For more than a century and a halffrom the middle of the 19th century tothe end of the 20ththe garment industry was the largest manufacturingindustry in New York City, and New York made more clothes than anywhere else. For generations, the industry employed more New Yorkers than any other andwas central to the citys history, culture, and identity. Today, although no longer the big heart of industrial New York, the needletrades are still an important part of the citys economyespecially for the newwaves of immigrants who cut, sew, and assemble clothing in shops aroundthe five boroughs. In this valuable book, historians, sociologists, and economists explore the rise andfall of the garment industry and its impact on New York and its people, as part ofa global process of economic change. Essays trace the rise of the industry, from the creation of a Manhattan garmentdistrict employing immigrants from nearby tenements to the contemporaryspread of Chinese-owned shops in cheaper neighborhoods. The tumultuoushistory of workers and their bosses is the focus of chapters on contractors andlabor militants and on the experiences of Italian, Chinese, Jewish, Dominican,and other ethnic workers. The final chapter looks at air labor, social responsibility,and the political economy of the offshore garment industry.

Review Workforce Readiness: Competencies and Assessment / Lawrence Erlbaum:Current economic difficulties and the challenge of competing in the world market have necessitated a rethinking of American approaches to the utilization of people in organizations. Management now recognizes a need to have workers take on more responsibility at the points of production, of sale, and of service rendered if the United States is to compete in rapidly changing world markets. This development means that much more is expected of even entry-level members of the American workforce. Thus, even more is expected of our high schools and colleges to provide this type of workforce. The need of American management for workers with greater skills and who can take on greater responsibility has spawned many commissions, task forces, and studies. All of them have contributed to the vast evidence documenting the need for a more highly skilled workforce. These studies are summarized and synthesized in this book. However, what remains largely undone is the development of methods to assess the necessary skills that have been identified. A major portion of this book deals with assessment issues. Workforce Readiness: Competencies and Assessment explores the state-of-the-art in the specification of competencies (skills) and their assessment for students entering the world of work from both high school and college. [+]
Both individual and team competencies are examined via data that has been reported and collected in various settings-schools, laboratories, and industrial facilities.
