women workers and globalization: emergent contradictions in india

This book helps me to find out the connection between my research ideas such as how technology is a significant factor in all levels of employment from blue collar to IT employees, how their lived experience, defence and work life and dramatically changed after the coming of globalization.  This book analyses how gendered work is exploited in the name of women emancipation and freedom, it also scrutinizes the ideas behind economic liberalism and its impact on worker's or employee's life. As a comparative study of workers in garment, electronics, BPO and IT-enabled works, this book is a good navigation for my future research and it is also a great resource in both methodological and data-wise understanding. The chapter on IT sector, which is named as 'neither mental nor manual labour, the service factories of the new economy' absolutely shows the dilemma, stress and confusion attached to the Indian service sector and its exploitation of cheap insecure labour.
