Inhaltsangabe

In a penetrating anthropological study of the working poor in India, Jan Breman examines the lives of those who, pushed out of the agrarian labour market, depend on casual work. By considering two villages in south Gujarat, the author discusses the mobilisation of casual labour, demonstrating that this is characteristic of an employment pattern which dominates the rural and urban economy of large parts of South Asia.
