The Yang  is an associate professor of
 sociology at University of California, Irvine.
 Xian He is an associate professor of law at City
 University of Hon Kong. They are co-authors
 of Street as Courtroom: State Accommodation
 of Labor Protest in South China

CNN It is unfortunate that Mike Daisey lied
 about Apple's labor practices on "This
American Life" by fabricating some harrowing
details about the suffering of workers in China
who make i Pads and i Phones. But this
