Book excerpt: Excerpt from Labour and Life of the People, Vol. 8 Not only does he work for a master whose business is subject to no vicissitudes of fortune, but his security of tenure is far greater than that of the servant of a private employer; the private trader is obviously much more directly interested in the efficiency of his servants than the head of a Government department; and there is a still stronger reason which militates against the dismissal of a civil servant, and that is that heads of departments have always before them the fear that pressure may be brought to bear by Members of Parliament. The result is that a Government department is certainly more long-suffering than a private employer, and dismissal is not likely to result except from ﬂagrant and repeated misconduct, or from the grossest incompetence. Se fully is this fact recognized that clerks and some other members of the service are only placed on the establishment after a period of probation. But even this security is probably not very effective, for the Lords of the Treasury point out that too much reliance must not be placed upon this security for obtaining competent civil servants. Heads oi' departments will, it must be anticipated, only refuse their certificate in cases of proved incapacity. The precaution is therefore a bar to incompetence, not a security for competence. In the case of lower division and boy clerks, however, advantage is sometimes taken of this mile to get rid of a clerk at the end of the period of probation, though in the vast majority of cases the cause assigned is bad health.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Indian Craftsman Trained as we are to measure everything by a mechanical standard, it is difficult for us to see things clearly, to get a correct focus. We are apt to forget that our view is biassed, that we attach a disproportionate value to the productions of machinery, and that a vast number, perhaps 60 per cent., of these productions are not, as is' generally supposed, labour-saving, health-giving and serviceable to our general life and culture, but the reverse. It is questionable, said John Stuart Mill half a century ago, whether all the labour saving machinery has yet lightened the day's labour of a single human being and the years that have followed his death seem not only to have further borne out his statement, but the people themselves who are being exploited by mechanical conditions are beginning to find it out.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Suwarta: And Other Sketches of Indian Life The following sketches are history and not fiction, although for obvious reasons neither place nor date is stated. For the place, it is enough to remind the reader that India is a continent: my reminiscences belong to cities almost as distant the one from the other as John o'Groats from Land's End. For the date, any time these fifteen years will give an idea accurate enough for all purposes. For the persons I have here tried to introduce, they belong to widely differing races and castes and positions in the social scale; their languages are foreign not only to us but to each other; Raghoba would count the proud Bai Saheb as an unclean thing, the Moulvi would defile himself by eating bread which Suwarta or Shiwadi had touched: yet all meet, I trust, amicably enough within the covers of my little book.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Celebrated as a classic work of historical literature, Life and Labor in the Old South (1929) represents the culmination of three decades of research and reflection on the social and economic systems of the antebellum South by the leading historian of African American slavery of the first half of the twentieth century. Life and Labor in the Old South represents both the strengths and weaknesses of first-rate scholarship by whites on the topics of antebellum African and African American slavery during the Jim Crow era. Deeply researched in primary sources, carefully focused on social and economic facets of slavery, and gracefully written, Phillips's germinal account set the standard for his contemporaries. Simultaneously the work is rife with elitism, racism, and reliance on sources that privilege white perspectives. Such contradictions between its content and viewpoint have earned Life and Labor in the Old South its place at the forefront of texts in the historiography of the antebellum South and African American slavery. The book is both a work of high scholarship and an example of the power of unexamined prejudices to affect such a work.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An empirical account of one of India’s largest indigenous populations, this book tells the story of the Gonds—who currently face displacement and governmental control of the region’s forests, which has crippled their economy. Rather than protesting and calling for state intervention, the Gonds have turned toward an informal economy: they not only engage with flexible forms of work, but also bargain for higher wages and experience agency and autonomy. Smita Yadav conceives of this withdrawal from the state in favour of precarious forms of work as an expression of anarchy by this marginalized population. Even as she provides rich detail of the Gonds’ unusual working lives, which integrate work, labour, and debt practices with ideologies of family and society, Yadav illustrates the strength required to maintain dignity when a welfare state has failed.

This book was released on 2006-01-01 with total page 896 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Florence Nightingale on Society and Politics, Philosophy, Science, Education and Literature, Volume 5 in the Collected Works of Florence Nightingale, is the main source of Nightingale’s work on the methodology of social science and her views on social reform. Here we see how she took her “call to service” into practice: by first learning how the laws of God’s world operate, one can then determine how to intervene for good. There is material on medical statistics, the census, pauperism and Poor Law reform, the need for income security measures and better housing, on crime, gender and the family. Her comments on a new edition of The Dialogues of Plato are given, with their impact on the revision of the next edition. We see Nightingale’s condemnation of Plato’s “community of wives,” with her stirring approval of love (even outside marriage!), marriage and the family. In this volume also her views on natural science, education and literature are reported. Nightingale was an astute behind-the-scenes political activist. Society and Politics publishes (much of it for the first time) her correspondence with such leading political figures as Queen Victoria, W.E. Gladstone and J.S. Mill. There are notes and essays on public administration and personal observations on various members of royalty, prime ministers and ministers, and Indian viceroys. Nightingale’s support of the vote for women (contrary to much in the secondary literature) is here shown. Correspondence and notes on British general elections from 1834 to 1900 is reported, with letters to and for (Liberal) political candidates and fierce condemnations of Conservatives. Currently, Volumes 1 to 11 are available in e-book version by subscription or from university and college libraries through the following vendors: Canadian Electronic Library, Ebrary, MyiLibrary, and Netlibrary.

Book excerpt: For all of India’s myths, stories and moral epics, Indian history remains a curiously unpeopled place. In Incarnations, Sunil Khilnani fills that space, recapturing the human dimension of how the world’s largest democracy came to be. His trenchant portraits of emperors, warriors, philosophers, film stars and corporate titans—some famous, some unjustly forgotten—bring feeling, wry humour and uncommon insight to dilemmas that extend from ancient times to our own.

Book excerpt: Classes of Labour: Work and Life in a Central Indian Steel Town is a classic in the social sciences. The rigour and richness of the ethnographic data of this book and its analysis is matched only by its literary style. This magnum opus of 732 pages, an outcome of fieldwork covering twenty-one years, complete with diagrams and photographs, reads like an epic novel, difficult to put down. Professor Jonathan Parry looks at a context in which the manual workforce is divided into distinct social classes, which have a clear sense of themselves as separate and interests that are sometimes opposed. The relationship between them may even be one of exploitation; and they are associated with different lifestyles and outlooks, kinship and marriage practices, and suicide patterns. A central concern is with the intersection between class, caste, gender and regional ethnicity, with how class trumps caste in most contexts and with how classes have become increasingly structured as the ‘structuration’ of castes has declined. The wider theoretical ambition is to specify the general conditions under which the so-called ‘working class’ has any realistic prospect of unity.
