Description
this book is to make everyone who is in for bargains conscious of the background of
these incredibly low-priced goods, to make the readers reflect upon the other side of the medal, a side we all ignore.

  • China the source of a wide range of our daily-used stuff.

    I wanted to underline how much we take our products as an evidence,
    totally loose of its source. Most of us buy and use
    products without ever thinking about their country of
    origin. That is why I thought it would be appropriate
    to highlight this aspect of so many daily utensils,
    devices and goods, of which we dont know their origin.
    Something daily unknown.

    I dont want this book to preach but mostly

    intend to make us consumers more aware of the origins
    of so many objects that have become an essential
    part of our daily lives. To inform the
    readers about the journey these goods make, before
    they eventually are displayed in our shops.
    Another purpose of this book is to make everyone
    who is in for bargains conscious of the background of
    these incredibly low-priced goods. To make the readers
    reflect upon the other side of the medal, a side we
    may not want to know, a side that isnt as magic and as
    shiny as the new objects they have just bought.
    Because glamourous goods aren't made in
    glamourous factories..

    This book is made as a school-assignment with lay-out as
    main importance. The entire content of the book was found
    on the world wide web and isn't verrified.
