Rethinking the Labour Movement in the ''New South Africa''

Testo aggiuntivo

'Bramble and Barchiesi have gathered the toughest contemporary critiques and auto-critiques of the South African labour movement, and contextualised these in a manner that no scholar or activist interested in post-apartheid political economy dare ignore. It's a remarkable collection, which takes forward our knowledge in many ways, and with great eloquence, depth and passion.' Professor Patrick Bond, University of the Witwatersrand, South Africa 'This book brings together an excellent collection of critical appraisals of the labour movement in the new South Africa. It is a timely collection, since the organised labour movement is currently at a crossroads in making important policy decisions regarding its future relationships with a government committed to neoliberal economic policies.' Professor Martin J. Murray, State University of New York at Binghamton, USA 'Ranging over theoretical, historical, contemporary and strategic issues, this is the single most important contribution to an understanding of the trajectory of the South African labour movement.' Professor Ben Fine, SOAS, University of London, UK '...a powerful and important new book that begins to fill a gap in the literature on South Africa's transition and on the role of organised labour within this process. This is a comprehensive and compelling volume tha is essential reading for anyone interested in understanding the changing and challenging role that the labour movement is playing in the ost-apartheid political dispensation.'
