Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

"White Capital & Coloured Labour" is a seminal sociological and political study that examines the complex intersections of race, economics, and colonial administration. Written by Sydney Haldane Olivier, a prominent Fabian socialist and former colonial governor, the work provides a critical analysis of the impact of European industrial capitalism on indigenous populations, particularly within the African continent. Olivier explores the ethical and practical challenges of colonial labor systems, arguing against racial prejudice and the exploitative practices that often characterized imperial expansion.The book delves into the racial dynamics of the early 20th century, scrutinizing how white capital mobilized and managed non-white labor forces. It offers a sophisticated perspective on the socio-economic structures that underpinned empire, advocating for a more equitable approach to governance. By addressing topics such as land ownership, wage labor, and social integration, "White Capital & Coloured Labour" remains a significant historical document for understanding the foundations of modern race relations and the critique of imperialism from within the colonial service itself. This insightful work is essential reading for those interested in the history of social justice, political economy, and the global legacy of colonial rule.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.
