Abstract

One subject of immense importance that has received little sustained attention in the domain of constitutional scholarship is labour. A quick survey of academic publications reveals not only a striking absence of constitutional engagement with labour law, but also a general paucity of serious writing on labour law and its implications. Supriya Routh’s new book, Labour Justice: A Constitutional Evaluationof Labour Law, promising a constitutional evaluation of the four labour codes, is a welcome contribution to what one hopes is the beginning of a broader scholarly engagement with the field.
