Norman Levy

The Foundations of the South African Cheap Labour System

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Originally published in 1982, this was the first in-depth study of the labour system of the South African gold mining industry during the crucial years 1886 to 1906. It provided an insight into the early period but was relevant for much longer, as many of the policies decided upon in the formative years of the industry persisted.
