Telecommunications Industry in India (eBook, ePUB)

State, Business and Labour in a Global Economy

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

This book represents the first comprehensive study of a state-run enterprise in the telecommunications industry. The study traces over a period of half a century (1948-2009) the growth and decline of Indian Telephone Industries (ITI). It tries to interrogate: How does the socio-technical system of production in a state-controlled firm shape the relations linking the four main actors: the state, management, union and workers? The original contribution of this book lies in combining business history and labour history within a single conceptual framework.
