Labour in Global Production Networks in India * Anne Posthuma and Dev Nathan (eds)
本书探讨印度融入全球生产网络对劳工的影响，分析经济升级对工人权利和工作条件的后果，适合关注发展经济学和劳工问题的读者。
As global capital is continuously looking for a spatial fix and the organization of global production networks (GPNs) has become increasingly complex and fragmented—not least in the face of financialization and the current economic crisis, India has in recent years emerged as one of the major players in the global economy. Yet while economic growth in India has been impressive and widely acknowledged, the outcome of this for social development across this vast country is much more contested and open for debate. This book, edited by Anne Posthuma and Dev Nathan, provides an important, stimulating and at times challenging contribution to the development literature in general and the evaluation of India's socio-economic development path through accelerating integration into GPNs in particular. More specifically, it poses questions about the role of labour in GPNs and the impact of economic upgrading and development on workers’ rights and working conditions, something that has arguably been neglected in much of the GPN literature to date.
