Book At Work in the Informal Economy of India: A Perspective from the Bottom Up by Jan Bremen, Oxford University Press, Rs 995
Published on

This book brings to light the plight of the rural and urban workforce at the bottom of the informal economy in India. While discussing labour being pushed out of agriculture, Jan Breman analyses why, when, and how this massive shift in production and employment came about. The book is a product of Bremen's anthropological fieldwork conducted in Gujarat—on record as the state with the highest rate of economic growth—spanning over five decades.
