Reviews
'Informal Markets, Livelihood and Politics: Street Vendors in Urban India is an important contribution to the growing field of global labour studies. It is the most comprehensive study we have of street vending. In its combination of rigorous scholarship and commitment to policies that give an institutional voice to these new "political subjects of labour", Debdulal Saha has provided us with a template for future studies of street vending across the globe.'
