Part of the Routledge Contemporary South Asia Series series
Paperback / softback
Description
In this first comparative study of organized labor in India and Pakistan, the author analyses the impact and role of organized labor in democratization and development.
The study provides a unique comparative history of Indian and Pakistani labor politics.
It begins in the early twentieth century, when permanent unions first formed in the South Asian Subcontinent.
Additionally, it offers an analysis of changes in conditions of work andterms of service in India and Pakistan and of organized labor's response.
The conclusions shed new light on the influence of organized labor in national politics, economic policy, economic welfare and at the workplace.
It is demonstrated that the protection of workers has desirable outcomes not only for those workers covered but also for democratic practice and for economic development.
