Labour, Globalization and the State

"This book explores the impact of neoliberal globalization on labour markets and the state in the developed and developing world. It focuses especially on the United States and the economies of Asia - in particular, India. Liberalized trade and investment are thought by neoliberals to be the best levers for raising labour standards, provided labour market flexibility and capital market restructuring accompany them. Labour market flexibility and capital market restructuring, at a first glance, appear to be complementary and symmetric policies. In practice, however, they often have very asymmetric consequences." "This book will be of interest to students and academics studying International Development, Development Economics, Political Economy, Comparative Labour Studies and Asian Studies."--BOOK JACKET.
