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 half—from the middle of the 19th century tothe end of the 20th—the 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 city’s history, culture, and identity. Today, although no longer the big heart of industrial New York, the needletrades are still an important part of the city’s economy—especially 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.
