The Way Forward.“The author has done a service to this line of study by collating and analysing a novel dataset in a manner that is going to be of use for researchers of the labour market in India, a subject in need of critical enquiry.” – Shanti Chakravarty, Professor of Economics, Bangor University, Wales, UK This book deconstructs the dynamics of the job market in an emerging economy (India) that has vast capital resources, addressing a key concern in relation to inequality in the labour market by social groups. The author examines the changing impact of caste on employment opportunity using two sets of large databases, and extends this analysis into religious affiliation and gender. The findings in this book will be of importance to those working in both research and policy, and makes an important contribution through addressing the decomposition of inequality based on disparity and discrimination.Labor economicsAsiaEconomic conditionsRaceLabor EconomicsAsian EconomicsRace and Ethnicity StudiesLabor economics.AsiaEconomic conditions.Race.Labor Economics.Asian Economics.Race and Ethnicity Studies.331331.1095409051Borooah Vani K.authttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut121961MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910337676303321Disparity and Discrimination in Labour Market Outcomes in India4482762UNINA
