Race, Class and the Changing Division of Labour Under Apartheid Summary
| This study is the only comprehensive empirical analysis of the changing racial and occupational structure of the urban workforce in South Africa under apartheid. |
|
|
| This book argues that contradictory dynamics in the urban labour market both facilitated and undermined the apartheid aim of white supremacy in the workplace. So, whereas racial inequality was deepened by low wages and rising unemployment among Africans, it was simultaneously undermined by black upward occupational mobility and increased black wages. Apartheid's legacy is therefore not only extreme racial inequality but also extreme inequality among black South Africans. This suggests that inequality in South Africa will be driven increasingly by class, rather than racial divisions. As the only comprehensive empirical analysis of the changing racial and occupational structure of the urban workforce under apartheid, this study will make an invaluable contribution to our understanding of the complex inter-relations of past and present racial inequality and economic development in South Africa. |
