The present book in this backdrop presents a comprehensive critical review literature and tests empirically the hypothesis whether in the case of India liberalization measures have been effective in reducing or increasing wage inequality, particularly in the manufacturing sector. The book in very analytical way tries to analyse the causes and consequences of liberalization and draws relevant policy implication for Indian policy makers to go ahead on the path of liberalization.
