The reactionary Arab regimes certainly do not want the leftists to come to power in Lebanon, for the revolutionary tide may not remain confined to a particular country and may sweep other parts of the Arab world.

It deals with wage boards, workers' participation in management, trade union objectives, human relations, collective bargaining, productivity, and the psychological and sociological approach to industrial relations, There are 20 articles in the book. These articles, contributed by academicians, professionals, trade union leaders, and Government officers, are grouped in two sections. Section I, which consists of six articles, pays tributes to ILO and traces the influence of ILO on Government's labour policy. The remaining articles are grouped in Section II under 'Dimensions of industrial Relations in India'.
