Amid vast unemployment, India's biggest job creator short of labour

The challenge of retaining staff despite 12.2 crore people losing their jobs in India last month shows how difficult it will be for Modi to restart Asia’s No. 3 economy, where the bulk of the workforce comprises so-called informal labour that are denied security and benefits. Economists predict a rare contraction in national output.

News from the John W. Kluge Center: Happening This Week: 100 Years of Women Voting

Get your free tickets here.

This Thursday, November 21, at 4pm in the Thomas Jefferson Building’s Coolidge Auditorium, the John W. Kluge Center will hold a discussion of the 100 years of women voting since the ratification of the 19th Amendment to the US Constitution.

Assistant Deputy Librarian Colleen Shogan will lead a panel featuring two leading scholars on women and voting: Christina Wolbrecht of the University of Notre Dame, and Jane Junn of the University of Southern California. Wolbrecht is the co-author of the forthcoming book A Century of Votes for Women: American Elections Since Suffrage.

This event will highlight the recently opened LOC exhibit, “Shall Not Be Denied: Women Fight for the Vote,” which will be open for viewing after the event.

The event is free, but due to expected demand, tickets are recommended. Tickets are available on a first-come, first-served basis. Visit the event ticketing site for more information and to secure your ticket. Entry is not guaranteed.
