Globalisation, Economic Growth, and Employment in India

By Sankar Kumar Bhaumik

This book examines the growth of India's economy during the era of globalisation, with a focus on the crucial link between the growth trends and employment generation. It analyses both national and state-level growth patterns and employment outcomes during the period, comparing them to those from the pre-globalisation era, to provide insights into the potential for increased growth to create meaningful employment opportunities. A standout feature of the book is its comprehensive coverage of the topic over the past 40 years. Using the most recent data available, it provides a detailed analysis segmented by region (rural/urban), sector, gender, age, education level, and social and religious demographics. It also offers policy recommendations to enhance employment as the country navigates the challenges posed by globalisation.

Students and researchers in Indian economics, labour economics, development studies, and gender studies, as well as policy planners, will find this book helpful.
