Description: Made In Egypt by Leila Zaki Chakravarti Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Hardcover Condition Brand New Description This ground-breaking ethnography of an export-orientated factory in Egypt examines the dynamic relationships between the emergent Mubarak-bizniz (business) elites, who are caught in an intensely competitive globalized supply chain, and the local realities of the daily lives of their young, educated, and mixed-gender labor force. Publisher Description This ground-breaking ethnography of an export-orientated garment assembly factory in Egypt examines the dynamic relationships between its managers – emergent Mubarak-bizniz (business) elites who are caught in an intensely competitive globalized supply chain – and the local daily-life realities of their young, educated, and mixed-gender labour force. Constructions of power and resistance, as well as individual aspirations and identities, are explored through articulations of class, gender and religion in both management discourses and shop floor practices. Leila Chakravartis compelling study also moves beyond the confines of the factory, examining the interplay with the wider world around it. Author Biography Leila Zaki Chakravarti is a Visiting Research Fellow at Goldsmiths (University of London) Dept of Anthropology. She has extensive fieldwork experience as a shop floor worker in an Egyptian garment assembly factory.
