| In this book Dr M.S.
Bhattacharya offers nothing less than a comprehensive account of child labour
and child abuse in almost the entire South Asia. It began with the days of
the Raj when newly set-up industries and plantations started employing
children on a large scale to augment production which continued for a long
time until trade union movements and resultant labour legislations restricted
the employment of children in the factories and plantations. The state of
child labour in the neighbouring countries like Bangladesh, Bhutan, Pakistan,
Nepal and Sri Lanka vis-a-vis India, the economy of child labour, its
socio-cultural roots, the treatment of children in the ancient world and
possible remedies to the problem form part of this study. Further, in this
book child abuse and juvenile delinquency, two inseparably linked phenomena
have been discussed with a rare sense of aptness. This intensely directed
study has mapped, perhaps for the first time, the problems of child labour,
child abuse and juvenile delinquency with absorbing details. |
