Introduktion
Globalization, an integral facet of our contemporary world, underscores the increasing interplay among nations, fostering cooperation and trade beyond borders.

It fuels international human, physical, and financial exchanges, driving development on a global scale. While globalization has ushered in an array of benefits, it has also cast a shadow, prompting us to ponder the costs it entails.

However, amidst the benefits of globalization lies a stark reality. Unfettered global trade poses a formidable challenge for early or underdeveloped nations, which often struggle to compete with their economically potent counterparts.

The wealthier elite, comprising business owners and managers, sometimes exploit workers and laborers to meet market demands, perpetuating income inequality.

Sweatshops, most prevalent in late-developing countries, house workers in unacceptable conditions, leading to tragic consequences, such as the factory fires and structural collapses witnessed in Bangladesh.

The ethical dilemma of who bears responsibility for averting future sweatshop catastrophes remains an open question.

Retailers, consumers, and governments are all potential actors, each with their own role in addressing this pressing issue.
