The Exploitation Of Women In Mexico's Maquiladoras, Jennifer Gibbs
The Exploitation Of Women In Mexico's Maquiladoras, Jennifer Gibbs
Mahurin Honors College Capstone Experience/Thesis Projects

As a result, globalization and increased foreign investment have created cultural, environmental, and occupational hardships and hazards for female Mexican laborers despite the monetary gains that have resulted from Mexican and United States government programs.
