Nellie Chu tells the story of the migrant entrepreneurs at the heart of Guangzhou, China's fast fashion industry--one of the world's most dynamic hubs of transnational commodity production. Chu shows how rural Chinese migrants, West African traders, and South Korean jobbers navigate the high-speed, low-margin world of just-in-time garment production while confronting their dreams of economic freedom with the reality of precarity and daily exploitation and marginalization.
