Resumen de Sectoral Occupational Transformation in India: Old Concerns and New Directions
The occupational structural transformation process is a much avowed outcome in developmental process. After a long time in the post-Independent development, it has begun to happen since 1983 and seemed have quickened in the post-Reforms period. However, there are several anomalies in this process such as lack of industrial employment, emergence of unorganized employment and so on. A structural transformation of employment should be about shifting from low productive-low wage sector to high productivity-high wage sector (with reasonable social security) which is however not in the offing. This paper mulls empirical evidence on these trends in employment, magnitude of structural transformation and the statistical determinants of this change, which gives interesting picture about the unfolding future.
