Cover of Ravi Ahuja & Marcel van der Linden: "The Distress is Impossible to Convey" (PDF)

Indian industrial employment became the subject not only of extensive official enquiries, intensified legislation, a growing number of academic studies and of more popular writings, but also of debates within and between European trade unions.
