Sweatshops debate

Together with Stephen Hickson, I'm tomorrow debating a couple of folks from the philosophy department on the merits of sweatshops. I'm of course defending the argument that sweatshops are far better than the real world relevant alternatives that sweatshop workers face. If interested and in Christchurch, it's on at 1:00 in Commerce Room 002.UPDATE: C-block lawn!

The debate is hosted by EconSoc. I'll post my opening comments post the debate.

Update: Full text of my opening remarks now available here.
