In this first comparative study of organized labour in India and
Pakistan, the author analyses the impact and role of organized
labour in the political and economic development of these two
countries. Beginning with the early twentieth century, when
permanent unions first formed in the South Asian sub-continent, it
provides a unique comparative history of Indian and Pakistani
labour politics. Additionally, it offers an analysis of changes in
conditions of work and terms of service in India and Pakistan and
of organized labours' response. Bangladesh and Sri Lanka are also
discussed for further comparative clarification throughout the
text. The conclusions shed new light on the impact of organized
labour in the field of national politics, economic policy, economic
welfare and the situation at the workplace-level. 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.
