Derivative expansion of the renormalization group in O(N) scalar field theory
We apply a derivative expansion to the Legendre effective action flow
equations of O(N) symmetric scalar field theory, making no other approximation.
We calculate the critical exponents eta, nu, and omega at the both the leading
and second order of the expansion, associated to the three dimensional
Wilson-Fisher fixed points, at various values of N. In addition, we show how
the derivative expansion reproduces exactly known results, at special values

Working Women in the Modern Global Economy
This fact sheet compiled by the International Labor Rights Forum addresses the fact that women overwhelmingly occupy the lowest paying and most unstable jobs in the garment and agricultural export industries. This document gives statistics on how weak labor laws hurt working women in Colombia, Peru, Bangladesh, and Chile
A Matter of Urgency: US Compliance with ILO Convention No. 182 Concerning the Prohibition and Immediate Elimination of the Worst Forms of Child Labor
This report evaluates US compliance with International Labor Organization Convention 182 which focuses on eliminating the worst forms of child labor.

Child Labor in the Soccer Ball Industry
In 1996, ILRF called attention to child laborers in Pakistan producing soccer balls for the world market. In response to this expose, soccer ball manufacturers agreed to participate in a monitoring program sponsored by the ILO with the goal of eliminating child labor from the industry. This report describes the progress made a year into the program.. The research shows that child labor persists in the soccer ball industry and that the program itself has serious flaws
