      abstract = {Product recalls spanning toys, children's products, food,  pet food, and automobiles have increased dramatically in  the recent past. Consequently, the safety of imported  products has been pushed to the top of the agenda for  companies, consumers, and governments. It has often been  argued that recalls occur due to differences among national  standards, cost pressures and opportunistic behavior by  companies. However, analysis of US toy recalls over a 20  year period reveals that the key to decreasing recalls and  harm from defective products lies in improving product  designs, learning from recalls and swiftly acting on  incidents. Together, these point to the inherent dangers in  the disaggregation of value chain and the need to  effectively manage those dangers.},
