Abstract

The chapter describes the origin of the concept of informal sector and development of the concept on the empirical basis in the different countries of the world. Conceptualization of informal sector, informality, and informal employment changed continuously according to the real changes in the society. Informal employment has become more vulnerable, yielded to unprotected unregulated labour and poverty in the countries. The chapter narrates situation in the entire world, with India tracing a different history in the process. Footlooseness of labour has always accompanied informal sector as shown in the different countries.
