Iftikhar's work combines labour history with details of deregulation and privatization in the recent decades and provides a riveting account of (lack of) tripartism not only in Pakistan but also in India. While the public sector unions were able to sign an accord with the state to protect their rights in the wake of privatization of state owned enter- prises, no such example is available for the private sector in South Asia. There is a need to scrap enterprise level bargaining and replace it with industrial/sectoral bargaining. This can be done by going back 90 years and incorporating the progressive provisions of Trade Union Act 1926, applicable in Pakistan till 1968 (though in a much mutilated form through amendments in 1960 and 1961 whereby minimum membership requirements were inserted and outsiders were no longer allowed to be part of executive unless they were paid full time employees of the union). Mr. Jinnah played a pivotal role in passage of the Act in 1926 by Imperial Legislative Council of which he was a member. Moreover, he was elected as the President of All India Postal Staff Union in 1925.
