Breman's central finding about the close coexistence of capitalism and labour bondage contains remarkable nuggets of hope for transcendence.

For more than half a century, Jan Breman has diligently, insightfully and creatively studied the life of labour in India, and specifically in Gujarat.

His searing descriptions and acute analyses based on painstaking fieldwork and a broad but clear theoretical framework have informed our understanding of the conditions of rural – and urban – labour over decades. His work has not only enriched our comprehension of existing concepts like labour bondage and circular migration, but have given rise to new ones, such as perceiving labourers as “hunters and gatherers of work”, who access whatever jobs are available, at whatever wages and in whatever conditions, for the sheer necessity of survival.

Now this wealth of analyses has been brought together in one volume which distils Breman’s contributions on the changing (and also all too unchanging) patterns of work and exploitation and places them in the large political economy of Indian development.
