商品描述

This book showcases issues of work and employment in contemporary India through a critical lens, serving as a systematic, scholarly and rigorous resource which provides an alternate view to the glowing metanarrative of the subcontinent's ongoing economic growth in today's globalized world. Critical approaches ensure that divergent and marginalized voices are highlighted, promoting a more measured perspective of entrenched standpoints. In casting social reality differently, a quest for solutions that reshape current dynamics is triggered. The volume spans five thematic areas, subsuming a range of economic sectors. India is a pre-eminent destination for offshoring, underscoring the relevance of global production networks (Theme 1). Yet, the creation of jobs has not transformed employment patterns in the country but rather accentuated informalization and casualization (Theme 2). Indeed, even India's ICT-related sectors, perceived as mascots of modernity and vehicles for upward mobility, raise questions about the extent of social upgrading (Theme 3). Nonetheless, these various developments have not been accompanied by collective action - instead, there is growing evidence of diminished pluralistic employment relations strategies (Theme 4). Emergent concerns about work and employment such as gestational surrogacy and expatriate experiences attest to the evolving complexities associated with offshoring (Theme 5).

商品描述(中文翻譯)

這本書透過批判的視角展示當代印度的工作與就業問題，作為一個系統性、學術性且嚴謹的資源，提供了對於當今全球化世界中次大陸持續經濟增長的光輝大敘事的替代觀點。批判性的方法確保了不同和邊緣化的聲音被突顯，促進了對根深蒂固立場的更為審慎的看法。在以不同方式描繪社會現實的過程中，觸發了重塑當前動態的解決方案的探索。本書涵蓋五個主題領域，涵蓋多個經濟部門。印度是外包的主要目的地，突顯了全球生產網絡的相關性（主題1）。然而，工作機會的創造並未改變該國的就業模式，反而加劇了非正式化和臨時化的現象（主題2）。事實上，即使是印度的資訊與通信技術（ICT）相關部門，雖然被視為現代化的象徵和向上流動的工具，但也引發了對社會升級程度的質疑（主題3）。儘管如此，這些不同的發展並未伴隨集體行動的出現，反而有越來越多的證據顯示多元化的就業關係策略正在減少（主題4）。關於工作和就業的新興關注，如妊娠代孕和外派經驗，證明了與外包相關的複雜性正在演變（主題5）。
