- Presenting case studies from India, Pakistan, the Philippines and Sri Lanka, the contributors analyse household-level changes in women's financial security and work opportunities, provide examples of strategic responses from NGOs, unions and activists seeking to strengthen the bargaining positions of subcontracted workers, and debate the wide-ranging implications for women's empowerment and changing relations of production.
