Nike has been accused of running sweatshops in third world countries since the 1970's. At various times, they have been said to use sweatshop labor in countries like China, South Korea and Taiwan. When these countries grew more skilled and organized labor unions, Nike shifted its focus to countries like Indonesia, the People's Republic of China and Vietnam, countries that banned labor unions.
