    Outsourcing typically happens to exploited countries with comprador governments who bend over backwards to accommodate foreign capital. Often in places where the IMF has dismantled labor laws as part of their “structural adjustment”.

      This is the typical colonial Western attitude. It’s also a fantasy. Lots of third world countries managed to climb out of poverty in a few generations thanks to outsourcing.

            You clearly don’t know what you’re talking about. Tell me how it was outsourcing that led the Chinese government to require any and all foreign development to be Chinese owned, which is what lead to the material base upon which they developed their own domestic industries…

            India must be doing great, right about now, huh? No exploited workers anywhere, right?

            None of those countries suffered from unequal exchange as a result of their intake of outsourced industries?
