African Labor History, Hardback Book

African Labor History Hardback

Edited by Peter C. W. Gutkind, Robin Cohen, Jean Copans

Part of the Routledge Revivals series

Hardback

Description

Originally published in 1978, this book was distinctive in translating the work of French labour specialists and includes chapters on Nigeria, South Africa, Senegal, Kenya, Tanganyika, Madagascar and Botswana.

Although all the papers are set in historically specific events, some of the larger issues receive further treatment.

These concern the reality of the existence of an African working class and its class identity and consciousness.

Each contributor adds to the debate by means of demonstrating how African workers have responded to their work situation, to deprivation and exploitation, and to the political authority of the colonial or neocolonial state
