The Travels of a T-Shirt

Pietra Rivoli

Pietra Rivoli holds up the Fort Lauderdale t-shirt that guided her journey.

Rivoli's The Travels of a T-Shirt Pietra Rivoli, associate professor at the McDonough School of Business at Georgetown, spoke to Associates in June about The Travels of a T-Shirt in the Global Economy, the title of her recent book on the political economy and ethics of globalization and international trade. Prof. Rivoli traced a t-shirt’s journey from the cotton fields of Texas to factories in China, through the American South and finally to Tanzania. Her book’s insights have resulted in countless national and international speaking engagements for Professor Rivoli.
