Labour issues are central to the social tensions marking the transformations taking place in both rural and urban areas, and underscore the myriad ways people have responded to economic and political crisis. In aiming to understand the multiple and specific dimensions of labour in this region, this book offers a collection of empirical studies across a range of time-frames (colonial and contemporary), economic sectors, labour processes and community contexts. 520 8 In seeking to provoke debate, the book reveals the variety of experiences evident in countries and regions marked by capitalist and (post) socialist regulatory frameworks, and contrasting labour regimes, histories and cultures. The contributions show the importance of critically examining both the complex nature of global-local links and the particular ways economic processes are refracted through culture and locality in southeast Asia. Clustered around the themes of labour regimes, labour processes, labour mobility and labour communities, the essays show how economic development is not only shaped by market forces but is also interlocked in systems of meaning."--Jacket. 588 0 Print version record. 590 eBooks on EBSCOhost|bEBSCO eBook Subscription Academic Collection - North America 650 0 Labor|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh90004091 |zSoutheast Asia.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects /sh85008627-781 650 7 Labor.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/989798 650 7 Economic conditions.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/ 1919582 651 0 Southeast Asia|xEconomic conditions.|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh2008116978 651 7 Southeast Asia.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/ 1240499 655 4 Electronic books. 700 1 Elmhirst, Rebecca.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/ n2003119596 700 1 Saptari, Ratna.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/ no96040675 776 08 |iPrint version:|tLabour in Southeast Asia|z0700714200 |w(DLC) 2003027557|w(OCoLC)53951231 830 0 Changing labour relations in Asia.|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/names/no2004087358 856 40 |uhttps://rider.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http:// search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&scope=site& db=nlebk&AN=644990|zOnline eBook.
