摘要

This article compares the private use of prison labor in the United States to the protections against forced labor in international law. The United States plays a prominent role in promoting labor rights and standards in its interactions with economic competitors such as China. Despite this, it violates its own international legal commitments both by allowing private companies to use prison labor and by allowing labor to occur within privately run prison facilities. This paper argues that this contradictory phenomenon is a symptom of neoliberal responses to globalization. Global competition increases the economic insecurity of American workers and gives political support to neoliberal economic ideologies, and in turn allows for the ideological construction of vulnerable foreign workers abroad and “rightless” workers at home.
