In their expose of labor practices in factories that make shoes and clothing for Nike, Jim Keady and Leslie Kretzu make the case that there is something deeply morally problematic about these practices. In a Liberty Fund video, Matt Zwolinksi pushes back on the suggestion that there is a problem with sweatshops.
•What 3 main points does Matt Zwolinski make in defense of sweatshops?
•How do you think Jim Keady and Leslie Kretzu (from the Nike video) would respond to each of these points? (Be sure to discuss each briefly.)
•Whose view - Zwolinski's or Keady's/Kretzu's - about the moral defensibility of sweatshops is more defensible, and why do you think this? Or are you uncertain about whose view makes more sense? If so, why are you uncertain?
