Dying for an iPhone [EPUB ebook] 
Apple, Foxconn, and The Lives of China’s Workers

支持

Suicides, excessive overtime, and hostility and violence on the factory floor in China. Drawing on vivid testimonies from rural migrant workers, student interns, managers and trade union staff,  Dying for an i Phone is a devastating expose of two of the world’s most powerful companies: Foxconn and Apple.
As the leading manufacturer of i Phones, i Pads, and Kindles, and employing one million workers in China alone, Taiwanese-invested Foxconn’s drive to dominate global electronics manufacturing has aligned perfectly with China’s goal of becoming the world leader in technology. This book reveals the human cost of that ambition and what our demands for the newest and best technology means for workers.
Foxconn workers have repeatedly demonstrated their power to strike at key nodes of transnational production, challenge management and the Chinese state, and confront global tech behemoths. Dying for an i Phone allows us to assess the impact of global capitalism’s deepening crisis on workers.’
