FEMNET - Nachrichten FEMNET-Nachrichten Ten Years of Todschick – the book on fashion and morality now available free of charge Ten years ago, Dr Gisela Burckhardt published ‘Deathly fashion and morality – why expensive does not mean equally fair’. The book exposes the widespread misconception that expensive brand fashion is automatically produced under fair conditions, and is therefore alarmingly up-to-date. No textile workers in Bangladesh will die for the precious stamps... Wrong! Also, luxury labels often have their clothes made under pitiful conditions – mainly cheap, even if it costs human lives. ‘Todschick’ looks behind the gleaming facades of the fashion industry and is both an indictment and a hope – because consumers can make companies think differently. Even though the book is already ten years old, many of the grievances described are unfortunately still a reality. At the same time, a lot has moved since then: Public pressure is growing, companies are being held more accountable, and legal regulations such as the German Supply Chain Act are setting the first binding standards. A current classification of the book can be found here. Copies of ‘Todschick’“ are now available exclusively from FEMNET – free of charge, subject to delivery costs. From mid-May 2025, you can receive this book for a processing fee of 5.00 EUR. Order now! Category: FEMNET-Nachrichten back
