Summary/Abstract Labour movements, in responding to global crises, are themselves confronted by 'intersecting contradictions' related to differing trade union forms and repertoires of action. In India, unions have been shaped in powerful ways by their historic articulation to state and politics. The scope and framing of union action has been somewhat limited. However, trade unions in India are also in a process of transition and are now more various in their forms, strategies and spatial relations.

Revitalising trade unions as civil society actors in India / Gillan, Michael; Biyanwila, Janaka   Journal Article
Gillan, Michael Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Publication 2009.
Summary/Abstract In the past, leading national trade unions in India failed to develop a strong base among unorganised (informal) sector workers and limited their engagement with civil society. Recent initiatives to redress the latter are assessed with reference to the opportunities and constraints that emerge from the organisational structure and ideological and political affiliations of trade unions.
