The Uncertain Promise of Southern Africa
The Rhodesia Railways African Strike of 1945, Part II: Cause, Consequence, Significance
In 1945, immediately following the conclusion of the Second World War, a major strike by African employees took place on the Rhodesia Railways. The Railways served both Southern and Northern Rhodesia (Zimbabwe and Zambia), and the system was the region's transportation backbone and largest single employer. This is the second part of a two-part article seeking to provide a far more comprehensive account of the strike than has heretofore appeared. …

The Rhodesia railways African strike of 1945, part I: A Narrative Account
In 1945, immediately following the conclusion of the Second World War, a major strike by African employees took place on the Rhodesia Railways. The Railways served both Southern and Northern Rhodesia (Zimbabwe and Zambia) and the system was the region's transportation backbone and largest single employer. Often seen as a watershed event, the strike has been treated, sometimes quite ably, by a number of scholars. The objective of the present artic…

Distant Companions: Servants and Employers in Zambia, 1900-1985
When I was taught anthropology," wrote James Murray, who from 1929 on spent over thirty years in the colonial service in Northern Rhodesia, "we learnt how to put bird seeds in skulls, about totemism and exogamy, and a Mr. Malinowski startled us all with a theory about ignorance of paternity.We also read little bits in a long book called 'The Golden Bough/ I do not think anybody taught us about masters and servants.Certainly I cannot remember Dr. …
The Shaping of South African Society, 1652-1840

South Africa: Time of Agony, Time of Destiny: The Upsurge of Popular Protest
The Second World War Revival of Forced Labor in the Rhodesias
The history of compulsion in Africa, Frederick Cooper remarked a while back, turns to be a long one ... .1 Indeed it does, even if one restricts attention to the colonial period, as I shall do here. Cooper's statement begs the question, however, of the definition of compulsion or, for our purposes, forced labor. We can establish a theoretical spectrum, along which actual cases might fall. At one end, we might observe (with some silliness perhaps)…

Herrenvolk’ Democracy and Egalitarianism in South Africa and the U.S. South
Even a casual survey of recent history reveals that a society's devotion to democratic or egalitarian principles hardly rules out blatant racial oppression. Indeed, the two positions have often been deemed compatible. The democratic ideology professed by Europeans (or those of European descent settled elsewhere) has been drawn from the egalitarian thought of the Enlightenment. As Louis Hartz has indicated, Enlightenment thought on this matter can…

Saving settlers: Maize control in Northern Rhodesia
Capitalism indeed penetrated Africa during the colonial period, but this is hardly to be confused with the triumph of 'free markets'. Many have argued, of course, that difficulties with 'free trade' provided the rationale for colonial conquest in the first place. In any case, it is now generally recognized that state intervention in markets, particularly the crucial markets in agricultural commodities, was a common feature of colonial rule. The r…
