Rather, it was one aspect of their goal, which was to establish a totally new society. Another aspect was the emancipation of women from their dual oppression by colonialism and by patriarchy. This book is an examination of the achievements of the PAIGC since 1974, based on a study of conditions before and after independence.

Within this framework, he discusses such topics as the displacement of the indigenous Africans, the migrant-labor system, and the development of "native reserves." He probes beneath the surface events to analyze the contradictions that have developed between different capitalist interests, as well as between sections of the white population, and concludes with a discussion of the growing opposition movement.

By 1973, at the time of his assassination, his movement had effectively defeated the Portuguese colonialists. His revolutionary thought and action are fully demonstrated in the pages of this book, which contains his most important speeches and writings. As Basil Davidson puts it in his introduction, Cabral's ideas were the "keys that could unlock the seemingly impassable door to freedom," and the body of his work is gathered together here and made available for the first time in English. The collection contains an introduction by Basil Davidson, and a biographical essay by Mario de Andrade.

The London meetings were expected to produce the outlines for future BritishAmerican efforts to secure a Rhodesian settlement. Britain's new Conservative government has already told the State Department that it doesn't intend to pursue AngloAmerican plans drawn up under the former Labor government. This stance by Britain, more than any purported change in Rhodesia, led to recent statements by the Carter administration

Dissertation Advisor: Professor Caroline Elkins Liang Xu On the Edge of Capitalism: African Local States, Chinese Family Firms, and the Transformation of Industrial Labor ABSTRACT This research, a study of capitalism on the frontier, examines Chinese garment production and African women workers in South Africa from the waning years of apartheid to the present. It focuses on Newcastle, a former border town between white South Africa and the black KwaZulu homeland that had been economically important for its coal and steel production since the 1960s. However, the “Asian Strategy” adopted by the Newcastle Town Council in the early 1980s transformed the town into a prominent site of low-wage, labor-intensive, and female-oriented light manufacturing.
