Explore the engine and inequities of India’s economic boom with this deep dive into its vast informal labour sector. Examining Bangalore, Mumbai, and New Delhi, this book reveals how rapid urban development is intrinsically linked to mass employment of workers facing low wages and limited rights. It critically analyzes neoliberal policies and the process of informalisation, offering a powerful ‘classes of labour’ framework to understand exploitation. Essential for scholars of Development Studies and South Asian Studies, and vital for anyone seeking an in-depth understanding of India’s informal economy and its profound impact on urban India.
