| 2005 | | Budhpura 'Ground Zero' - Sandstone quarrying in India
(ICN, Dec 2005)
This report is the result of independent research into sandstone quarrying in Budhpura village, Bundi district, Rajasthan state, India.
The report provides information on the quarrying of natural stone in India in general and
in Rajasthan in particular as a background to the specifics of sandstone quarrying in
Budhpura village. The report digs into the social, economic, and environmental impacts
of quarrying for the local population, distinguishing between those who benefit most
and those who hardly benefit. It turns out that huge profits are made in this business, but
that those who do the hard work do not share in the wealth yielded. |
| 2005 | | Between modernism and archaism: The bonded labour situation in India
(Frédéric Robin for CCFD, Nov 2005)
This thesis explores the Indian situation regarding bonded labour. This form of forced labour, which
corresponds to a "practice similar to slavery" according to UNO, corresponds schematically to the setting
in constraint of a person because of the contraction of a debt. Because of this borrowing of money, the
person mortgages one’s freedom and must work relentlessly for the person she or he will often call
"Master". All this happens in a climate of great psychological and physical violence. This form of setting
in constraint exists in many countries, but finds in India reasons enabling its “blooming”, since millions
of people are concerned by this. |

This report takes a close look at child labour and working conditions in the sport goods industry in Punjab, India.
It also describes and discusses the various initiatives taken nationally and internationally to tackle these issues. In India the initiatives of the South Asian Coalition on Child Servitude (SACCS) and the Sports Goods Foundation of India (SGFI) are among the most prominent.
Internationally the World Federation of Sporting Goods Industry (WFSGI), FIFA and its licensing organization ISL (International Sports and Leisure), the International Confederation of Free Trade Unions (ICFTU) as well as the major sports goods companies play an important role. The International Labour Organization (ILO) and UNICEF are other major players in the field of child rights and labour rights. |

| 1998 | | No rose without a thorn: Export flowers from India
There are plenty of reasons to take a critical look at the growth of the flower industry in India. Who are the investors in this sector, where do the profits go and who benefit by the substantial government subsidies? Does the international flower trade have as many opportunities as is often suggested? Is the demand for cut flowers growing at the same high pace as the supply? Will the market not become oversupplied and is collapse not imminent? What are the consequences of floriculture for the environment and what measures are taken to prevent environmental damage? How are labour conditions in the floral industry? How are health hazards of pesticides dealt with?
This report deals with those questions. The text is based on interviews and documents collected in India during the first six months of 1997. |
