Cambridge University Press, 28 mar. 1998 - 323 pagini
The book deals with the transformation of labour markets in Indonesia over 30 years of New Order government under President Soeharto. It traces the impact of rapid economic growth on employment, wages and labour productivity in an initially poor labour surplus economy. Key elements of the process include a growing industrial and informal sector work force, rising labour incomes, increasing mobility of rural labour, regional integration and greater female participation in the economy.
