      abstract = {This book, recognizing that workplace bullying is a  significant employment relations and occupational health  and safety problem in India which warrants urgent and  holistic intervention, presents empirical studies examining  contextual factors, antecedents, mediators, moderators,  processes, outcomes and solutions, thereby deepening our  understanding of the phenomenon. The chapters showcased in  the volume emphasize the paradoxical Indian sociocultural  ethos whose simultaneous embrace of humanism versus  identity-based, personalized and hierarchical  relationships, materialism versus spiritualism and  individualism versus collectivism both fuel yet quell  misbehaviour. The inquiries which constitute this book  engage both positivist and postpostivist paradigms, draw on  several theoretical and substantive frameworks, utilize an  array of methods, investigate numerous foci and cover  various geographical regions in India, a range of  industrial sectors and all levels of the organization. In  so doing, they make pathbreaking contributions beyond  country-specific insights to advance the frontiers of the  thematic area worldwide. The chapters include important  findings pertaining to digital workplaces, child labour,  forgiveness, customer bullying, psychological contract  violation, perceived organizational support, psychological  capital and comprehensive prevention strategies  encompassing psychosocial risks. As well as building on a  decade of knowledge about workplace bullying in India, the  book puts forward a research agenda on the topic for the  subcontinent in particular and the field in general. The  volume is of interest to researchers, practitioners and  students of organizational studies, human resource  management, industrial relations, labour law, corporate  law, health sciences and social work.},
