This book offers the first comprehensive history of white workers
from the end of the First World War to Zimbabwean independence in
1980. It reveals how white worker identity was constituted,
examines the white labouring class as an ethnically and nationally
heterogeneous formation comprised of both men and women, and
emphasises the active participation of white workers in the ongoing
and contested production of race. White wage labourers'
experiences, both as exploited workers and as part of the
privileged white minority, offer insight into how race and class
co-produced one another and how boundaries fundamental to settler
colonialism were regulated and policed. Based on original research
conducted in Zimbabwe, South Africa and the UK, this book offers a
unique theoretical synthesis of work on gender, whiteness studies,
labour histories, settler colonialism, Marxism, emotions and the
New African Economic History. -- .
