Críticas:

"There is no doubt that the phenomena of globalization, the subjection of labour to hardship, rising inequality, and eroding global justice deserve to be addressed and emphasized, and not least in an environment where these dismal aspects of the world order are often not even acknowledged - leave alone sought to be redressed - by the global North. In the sense and to the extent that this book takes these issues seriously, it deserves to be commended." _ S. Subramanian

The basic desideratum of the present volume is to bring out a variety of perspectives, polemics and policy responses on the critical facets of globalisation and labour market relationship. This book is a blend of both rigorous theoretical and empirical papers, by a group of distinguished international researchers, significant in the development of research on the dynamics of labour market in a rapidly changing globalised world in the new era of twenty-first century that witnessed an unprecedented rise in cross-border flow intensity of goods, services, finance, individuals, ideas, data, communications, transportations, cultures, linguistics, values, and so on. 

The profound insights and issues considered include globalisation and employment flexibility; inequality in the Anthropocene; nexus of globalized labour, ecology, and peace in the Anthropocene; transnational inequalities, public reason, and global justice; labour-capital nexus; and a multivariate causal pathways model of the dynamics of labour market in a global economy. Above and beyond, the empirical studies include revisiting Danish flexicurity; dynamics of female migration and state policies in Kerala (India); migration of high quality manpower from Malaysia; labour-related issues of the privatisation of Cyprus Turkish airlines; challenges of Malaysia’s labour market in the context of globalisation; and globalization, inequality and unemployment in the case of two giantAsian countries: India and China. 

This book is a useful compendium for economists, academics, professionals and informed students interested in labour economics, international economics, development macroeconomics, and ecological economics.
