Although there is a growing body of literature on the process and
potential political consequences of class-formation in Africa,
there are virtually no detailed studies of the political attitudes
and behaviour of African industrial workers. First published in
1978, this study analyses the political history and sociology of
one particular group - the railway workers of Ghana's third city,
Sekondi-Takoradi, who are renowned for their leading role in the
Ghanaian nationalist movement and for their sustained opposition to
the elitism and authoritarianism of post-Independence governments.
In seeking to explain the ideological consistency which has
informed the political activities of the railway workers, Richard
Jeffries shows how, within a close-knit and relatively stable
community, a keen sense of their own history has provided the basis
for a shared political culture.
