Abstract

In this book, Duncan Money convincingly argues that the actions, organisations and identities of the white mineworkers who came to Zambia's Copperbelt from the 1920s onwards were shaped by their international connections, experiences and mobility. Drawing on research from archives on four continents, he shows what this meant for the ideas of race and class and for the lives of African workers on the Copperbelt, one of the most important centres of the world copper industry. These white workers were part of a highly mobile global workforce that moved between mining regions around the world. They saw themselves as a white working class and, using a strategy of racial segregation and industrial militancy, became some of the most affluent workers in the world.

Abstract

Around 1900 the small Ethiopian community in Jerusalem found itself in a desperate struggle with the Copts over the Dayr al-Sultan monastery located on the roof of the Holy Sepulchre. Based on a profoundly researched, impassioned and multifaceted exploration of a forgotten manuscript, this book abandons the standard majority discourse and approaches the history of Jerusalem through the lens of a community typically considered marginal. It illuminates the political, religious and diplomatic affairs that exercised the city, and guides the reader on a fascinating journey from the Ethiopian highlands to the Holy Sepulchre, passing through the Ottoman palaces in Istanbul.

Abstract

The neoliberal policy response to the crisis in Ghana did not succeed in reversing the economic decline in both the medium and long term. In fact, quite the opposite, rather than undoing the economic decline, Frimpong argues that the policy prescriptions further weakened the country's ability to develop. This is because the policies intentionally and unintentionally encouraged factors that destabilised the possibility of the real productive assets to earn commensurate returns to facilitate the flow of capital to the real sectors to ensure the survival of industrial enterprises. Rising profit in the financial sector incentivised financial capitalist to divert capital into financial assets at the expense of productive investment, further decelerating the pace of real capital accumulation in the country.
