内容説明

This is an insight into the economic, social and political processes that shaped the lives of white workers in Johannesburg between the beginning of deep level mining (c 1890) and the 1922 Rand Revolt miners' strike. The book examines four related topics, the formation of working class families, working class accommodation, the constitution of social networks in the working class neighbourhoods and the political and ideological aspects of white workers' unemployment. The main argument presented here is that the class experience of white workers in Johannesburg had a very important role in fostering a sense of community between English and Afrikaner workers and their families. It is this sense of community that plays an important part in understanding the solidarity that emerged between English and Afrikaner workers during the 1922 Rand Revolt.
