Synopsis
Excerpt from Black, White or Yellow?: The South African Labour Problem; The Case for and Against the Introduction of Chinese Coolies
In a Situation such as has been created by the shortage of aboriginal labour in South Africa, a practical solution of the problem should not be sacrificed to sentiment. If there are strong presumptive grounds for opposing the employ ment of Chinese in the Transvaal, or elsewhere for that matter, there are even weightier grounds for supporting it. No greater mistake, could be made than to suppose that the Rand mining magnates are alone in their desire for yellow workmen. And the same remark applies to the inference that supporters of Chinese labour are supporters of these million aires - gentlemen who by no means command wide sympathy. The essence of all good government is to afford the greatest benefit to.

Black, White or Yellow?: The South African Labour Problem (Classic Reprint)
Print on DemandSeller: Forgotten Books, London, United Kingdom
Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book debates the introduction of indentured Chinese labor in South Africa. Set against the backdrop of the gold mining industry's labor shortage, the author presents opposing viewpoints backed by evidence that show the complexities of the issue. Central to these debates is the question of whether the gold mining industry can develop without cheap unskilled labor, and whether or not the utilization of such labor constitutes a form of slavery. The author also delves into the impact of Chinese labor on the local economy, including the arguments that this would exclude white South Africans from employment and harm various industries. Ultimately, the book concludes that the full effects of this labor importation are uncertain and that this is a complex, difficult issue with no easy answers. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Seller Inventory # 9781330212127_0
