The Making of the Indian Working Class
Author: Vinay Bahl
Publisher:
ISBN: 9788170364153
Category : Iron and steel workers
Languages : en
Pages : 432
Book Description
This is an insightful study of the forces that were responsible for the formation of the working class in India's large-scale steel industry during the colonial period and how those forces responded to the workers' struggles. Exploring the historical development of the workers' movement, including the active role played by women workers, in the Tata Iron and Steel Company (TISCO), Vinay Bahl challenges subaltern historiography which, she contends, focuses on a static model of working class culture in isolation. Dr. Bahl argues that culture is a social product and, therefore, cannot be the exclusive basis for understanding the struggles of the Indian working class. In order to fully comprehend the class consciousness of working women and men, it is necessary to examine all the forces - social, economic, political, historical, and cultural - that shaped them and their struggles against the capitalist class. This study is based on new research in archival materials available in India and the UK, including correspondence, minutes, and reports from steel company records, and interviews with steel workers and their leaders at Jamshedpur. Dr. Bahl challenges existing approaches to and provides a fresh perspective on questions related to India's industrialisation, the struggles of the Indian working class, and the shaping of their class consciousness under colonial rule. This book will be essential reading for those interested in industrial sociology, comparative labour history, colonial history, the history of trade unions, economics and business management, and development studies.

Workplace Relations in Colonial Bengal
Author: Anna Sailer
Publisher: Bloomsbury Publishing
ISBN: 1350233552
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 423
Book Description
This book connects the history of labour movements with the transformation of workplace relations in South Asia from the late 19th century to the 1930s. Contending that labour conflicts in the Bengal jute industry must be understood against the backdrop of a radical change in the organisation of work in this period, Sailer shows how this led to a rupture in worker's relations in the workplace and beyond. Moving away from polarities such as class/culture or modernity/tradition and reconsidering the context around industrial conflicts in this period, Workplace relations in Colonial Bengal offers a new framework to analyse the changing organisation of work in colonial India, and identifies the implications for worker relations both inside and outside the factory. Focusing on a major colonial era industry, this book opens up new perspectives n the history of workers and colonial capitalism in modern India.
