| Summary, etc. |
Liberalisation has exposed the weaknesses of our trade unions and forced them to rethink them to rethink their policies and programmes. Drawing on several primary and secondary sources of data, this paper primarily focuses on exploring the responses of our unions to the changing industrial scenario. Today our unions are defensive, less militant and more pragmatic about the productivity and efficiency of their organisations. To fight against the bigger enemy and the entire system, they now understand the need for working class unity and expansions beyond the so-called `citadel' with growing concern for wider issues. All these changes have initiated a new beginning in the history of our working class struggle. Today trade unions can sustain themselves only through a pragmatic approach that compels them to develop wider networks in association with other civil society organisations. - Reproduced. |
