The ‘Labour Question’ in Africanist Historiography
The year 2019 marks the centenary of the International Labour Organization (ILO). The General Labour History of Africa ( GLHA ) is the result of cooperation between the ILO and a group of Africanist labour historians who came together to write a history of African workers and work in Africa since the beginning of the twentieth century. The GLHA is intended, first, to contribute to a substantial understanding of labour in Africa throughout history…
The ‘Labour Question’ in Africanist Historiography
Transport
In contemporary Africa, the development of transport labour is intrinsically connected to the expansion of the typical, capitalist form of labour relations: free wage labour. Historically, labour power in transport has proven to be particularly prone to be exploited in exchange for wages: the transport worker of twentieth-century Africa, from the porter to the aviation pilot, is usually a wage worker. In the twentieth century, caravan routes made…
The ‘Labour Question’ in Africanist Historiography
General Labour History of Africa: Workers, Employers and Governments, 20th-21st Centuries
Co-published by the ILO and James Currey, the General Labour History of Africa is a landmark in the study of labour history. It brings, for the first time, an African perspective within a global context to the study of labour and labour relations. Eminent historians, anthropologists and social scientists from Africa, Europe and the United States examine key developments in the 20th century, such as the emergence of free wage labour; the transform…

Wage labour and capitalism: A comparative and historical analysis of Eritrea and Kenya
This paper seeks to explain the development of capitalism in Eritrea and Kenya from a labour history perspective. Indeed, the assumption in this research is that capitalism can only be explained by taking into consideration free wage labour as one of the sine qua non conditions for the existence of the capitalist mode of production. Therefore, the article looks at the paradigmatic socio-economic shifts: from unfree to free labour, from free to pr…

Crisis of Capitalism, Crisis of Labour
Capitalism is back!'', declares Nancy Fraser in a recent issue of the New Left Review. 1 Fraser is referring, of course, to the growing number of commentators and scholars, from all points on the theoretical spectrum, who have, after decades of oblivion, returned to the notion of capitalism, in many cases offering a critical analysis of this socio-economic system and its history
Wage Labor and Mobility in Colonial Eritrea, 1880s to 1920s
Mobility and wage labor are two key variables that help to explain some of the complexities of the labor history of colonial Eritrea. Focusing on the initial period of Italian colonization, between the 1880s and 1920s, this article analyzes the relationship between the two above-mentioned variables. Based on previously unexplored archival sources and documents, the authors conclude that wage labor did contribute to the mobility of workers through…
Colonial ideology versus labour reality: A history of the recruitment of Italian workers to the colony of Eritrea, 1890s–1940s
This article analyses the labour history of Italy's recruitment of workers for settlement in the Italian colony of Eritrea. The quest for full employment, both in Italy and within its nascent colonial ‘empire’, was the main driving force behind Italian colonialism in general. Italy's labour policy, which started to take shape in the 1890s, was never linear. Unlike the previous liberal Governments, the Fascist regime's policy was far more determin…
Introduction: Labour in Transport: Histories from the Global South (Africa, Asia, and Latin America), c.1750 to 1950
This introduction highlights the main subjects and research questions addressed in the articles making up this Special Issue on the labour histories of transport in the Global South. Although historiographical interest in the history of transport labour is growing, scientific knowledge on the subject is still very limited. This is especially true for histories from outside Europe and North America. Important topics and research problems covered h…
Engine of change: A social history of the car-mechanics sector in the Horn of Africa
The general assumption in this chapter is that European technology produced transformations during the colonial period. This transfer was grafted onto a social environment that absorbed external influxes and metabolized them with local heritages. Ultimately, the process resulted in the transformation of the new technology, in this case the motor industry, in the Horn of Africa, with new mechanical technologies and social classes being created. Th…
