In this episode of For Sociology, host Kevin Caners speaks with sociologist and Kohli Fellow Alex Hoppe about the people, processes and decisions behind the clothes we wear. Drawing on eleven months of fieldwork inside clothing factories in India, he explains how suppliers are taking on design work long associated with Western fashion capitals.

Alex Hoppe also reflects on his two years as a Kohli Fellow at the WZB Berlin Social Science Center (2024-2026) and the slow work of turning field observations into a book.
