This is a study of the evolving relationship between the British
colonial state and the copper mining industry in Northern Rhodesia,
from the early stages of development to decolonization,
encompassing depression, wartime mobilization and fundamental
changes in the nature and context of colonial rule. It explores the
vital importance of Northern Rhodesian copper to British economic
and strategic interests, and to Britain's ambitious post-war plans
to integrate its Central African territories. Among the key themes
addressed are contemporary debates on the ownership of mineral
resources and on the colonial state's responsibility to promote and
control mining development and the wealth it generated.
