Abstract
The share of workers belonging to unions has declined in many countries, and new patterns of employment, such as the rise of the so called 'gig economy', are making unorganised labour the norm in a large number of industries. For Pranab Bardhan, this weakening of labour organisations has been a factor in enabling the growth of inequality and the rise of right-wing populism. He outlines some suggested steps for reversing this trend.
