Abstract: | This article reviews the changing prerogatives of development theory and strategy within a historical perspective. Their implications on "the labour question" are reviewed, particularly from the perspectives of popular, radical and functionalist positions. The suggestion is then made for adopting a perspective to labour studies which properly captures the interplay between structure and agency in the management of the circumstances of production. The methodology is recommended as a guide to studies and research on issues concerning labour (sic personnel or human resources). |
