Even though South Asia has been the fastest growing region in the world in recent years, there is a genuine concern whether this growth has been able to generate productive employment in these countries. This centrality of jobs warrants a deeper understanding between the (possible) mismatch between economic growth and employment in the South Asia region. To address this issue, the Indian Statistical Institute — Delhi and the World Bank organized a workshop entitled "Jobless Growth?" in March 2018. The objective of the workshop was to try and answer the question — is jobless growth in South Asia a myth or a reality? In this ebook, five papers were selected to provide an informative view of the status of academic research on employment and growth in the region.
