The book aims to ignite a collective effort towards ensuring decent work for domestic workers and facilitate a public debate on their rights. It includes discussions on the issue of social justice with special emphasis on invisibilization and undervaluation of domestic work, feminization of domestic work, and recognizes the rights of domestic workers as human rights. The issues covered in this book bridge the gap between legal and social dimensions of domestic work and address the discrimination faced by domestic workers in a holistic manner. Given its scope, the book would appeal to both academics (law as well as social science) and non-academics. It will be a useful tool for teachers, students, practitioners, policy-makers and civil society organizations working for the unorganized sector.Labor lawHuman rightsSocial justiceLabour Law/Social Lawhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/R12018Human Rightshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/R19020Social Justice, Equality and Human Rightshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/X33070Labor law.Human rights.Social justice.Labour Law/Social Law.Human Rights.Social Justice, Equality and Human Rights.344.01344.03Mahanta Upasanaedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtGupta Indranathedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtBOOK9910350245103321Recognition of the Rights of Domestic Workers in India1754059UNINA
