[notes]

Harley Shaiken moved to Berkeley when I was a grad student 
there.  He does fascinating work on industrial relations and 
globalization.  He was then developing a long-term project 
on Maquiladoras on the Mexico-U.S. border.  I highly 
recommend his work.

Sheldon Friedman, senior economist in the AFL-CIO Department 
of Public Policy, asked that I forward the invitation to 
economists who would be interested.
