FROM COERCION to COMPENSATION INSTITUTIONAL RESPONSES to LABOUR SCARCITY in the CENTRAL AFRICAN COPPERBELT African Economic
FROM COERCION TO COMPENSATION INSTITUTIONAL RESPONSES TO LABOUR SCARCITY IN THE CENTRAL AFRICAN COPPERBELT African economic history working paper series No. 24/2016 Dacil Juif, Wageningen University [email protected] Ewout Frankema, Wageniningen University [email protected] 1 ISBN 978-91-981477-9-7 AEHN working papers are circulated for discussion and comment purposes.

The African Economic History Network is funded by Riksbankens Jubileumsfond, Sweden 2 From Coercion to Compensation Institutional responses to labour scarcity in the Central African Copperbelt* Dácil Juif, Wageningen University Ewout Frankema, Wageningen University Abstract There is a tight historical connection between endemic labour scarcity and the rise of coercive labour market institutions in former African colonies. This paper explores how mining companies in the Belgian Congo and Northern Rhodesia secured scarce supplies of African labour, by combining coercive labour recruitment practices with considerable investments in living standard improvements. By reconstructing internationally comparable real wages we show that copper mine workers lived at barebones subsistence in the 1910s-1920s, but experienced rapid welfare gains from the mid-1920s onwards, to become among the best paid manual labourers in Sub-Saharan Africa from the 1940s onwards. We investigate how labour stabilization programs raised welfare conditions of mining worker families (e.g. medical care, education, housing quality) in the Congo, and why these welfare programs were more hesitantly adopted in Northern Rhodesia. By showing how solutions to labour scarcity varied across space and time we stress the need for dynamic conceptualizations of colonial institutions, as a counterweight to their oft supposed persistence in the historical economics literature.

The Contribution of Dry Forests to Rural Poverty Reduction and to the National Economy: Zambia
The Contribution of Dry Forests to Rural Poverty Reduction and to the National Economy: Zambia Technical Report Samuel Mulenga Bwalya Department of Economics, University of Zambia, Box 32379, Lusaka Tel# 260 1 290475, [email protected] The Contribution of Dry Forests to Rural Poverty Reduction and to the National Economy: Zambia Draft summary We have shown that forests and woodland resources contribute, on average, 21% to total production and income of rural households. Aggregating forest production and income to a national levels based on sample information is challenging task and by no means likely to be very precise and accurate. But scaling up sample estimates to the national level facilitates inter-sectoral comparisons and would sharpen our insights about the importance of forests and woodland resources in rural development and poverty reduction. Sample estimates and national statistics on the number of rural households is used to scale up and estimate the contribution of forest and woodland resources to the national rural household sector. We multiply the proportion of households harvesting a particular forest product by the total number of rural households in Zambia. This gives us an estimate of the number of rural household across the country that harvest forest a given forest product both for consumption within the household and for sell to obtain cash income. This estimate is then multiplied by the average value of each forest product harvested to obtain the total contribution of the forests sector to rural household economy. Because we ignore value addition along the supply chain and other forms of income and services households derive from forests, this estimate should be seen to represent the minimum contribution of forest resources to rural household sector.

However, ZAC has continued to make significant progress to contribute to the reduction of the malaria morbidity and mortality in line with the Government vision of a “malaria free nation” by 2015 and ZAC has been part of this progress with support from Episcopal Relief & Development. At community level, ZAC has continued to work with Malaria control agents and also with other stakeholders in the fight against malaria. Community engagement has contributed to this success over the years. In the recent past, there have been some new strategies to combat malaria in Zambia and ZAC has adopted these strategies that are aimed at pre elimination of malaria in selected districts namely Kazungula, Sesheke, Shangombo, Livingstone, Kalabo, Senanaga and Sikongo. These strategies include the “Testing, Treating and Tracking” of each malaria case. This is complemented by active surveillance of malaria cases by use of active and passive registers that have been introduced.

2.4 Zambia Railway Assessment
2.4 Zambia Railway Assessment Travel Time Matrix Railway Companies and Consortia Capacity Table Key Route Information Key Stations The Zambia National Railways are very important to the economy of the country as it is a bulk carrier with less effect on the environment than many other transport modes. The Government intends to expand its railway network in the country to develop the surface transport sector. Through the Ministry of Transport, a new statutory instrument (SI) was passed, which requires industries to move 30% of their carriage by rail. This is in a bid to decongest the road sector and possibly reduce the damage done by heavy duty trucks on Zambian roads. The development of rail routes linking important exit points is not only vital for facilitating smooth access to the outside but also for the overall boosting of trade in the sub-region and making Zambia a competitive country for business. Traditionally, the Zambian railways have generally operated well below their original design capacity, yet significant investment is underway to increase their volumes by investing in track conditions, increase locomotive and wagon availability and increase operating capital. The rail network remains the dominant mode of transportation for goods on the local and international routes but is under-utilized. The main railway lines are the Zambia Railways, owned by Government and the TAZARA line, linking Zambia with Tanzania, and jointly owned by the Zambian and Tanzanian governments. The opening of the Chipata-Mchinji railway link provides connectivity into the Malawi and Mozambique railway network and further connects Zambia to the port of Nacala.

Kitwe (Zambia)
Assessing and Planning City Region Food System Kitwe (Zambia) :: Introduction Kitwe city region includes the 10 districts that compose the Copperbelt Province. The Copperbelt Province is located in north-western Zambia and covers 31,329 Km2. It is the second most populated and dense area in Zambia after Lusaka (approx.2.3 million inhabitants), with 39% living in urban areas. It lies on one of the world’s greatest mineral bearing rocks, in particular for copper, dictating the spatial pattern of development. Three layers have been defined to characterize the area: 1. Primary or Core Region, defined exclusively by Kitwe district; 2. Secondary of Peripheral Region, defined by the Copperbelt Province, i.e. the area defined as the city region, where most of the food consumed is produced; 3. Tertiary or Other Region: Region outside the secondary region but from which the Kitwe food system obtains agricultural, livestock and poultry products. Kitwe city region: core, secondary and tertiary regions (Source: CSO, 2012) :: Describing the city region food system (CRFS) Food production: Most small scale farmers are still illegal settlers Who feeds the city region? awaiting title to land. Access to land in the core region is very difficult due to high demand as The Kitwe City region has great potential well as competition between agriculture, mining to produce agro-commodities. Although activities and urban development. almost all fresh food products are locally There is a major issue of agrochemicals produced, the demand exceeds supply and contamination of the worker’s health and the the shortfall is made up by importing from ecosystems, due to inadequate data to be shared outside the region even outside the country.

The ore deposits of the Central African Copperbelt formed during a multiphase mineralisation process. The basement underlying the Neoproterozoic Katanga Supergroup that hosts the ore, demonstrates the largest potential as metal source. Various ore deposits that formed during different mineralisation phases are taken as case studies, i.e. Kamoto, Luiswishi, Kambove West, Dikulushi and Kipushi (Democratic Republic of Congo, DRC). The Sr and Nd isotopic compositions of gangue carbonates associated with these deposits is determined and compared with those of rocks from several basement units, bordering or underlying the Copperbelt, to infer the metal sources. The mineralising fluid of diagenetic stratiform Cu-Co mineralisation interacted with felsic basement rocks underlying the region. The Co from these deposits is most likely derived from mafic rocks, but this is not observed in the isotopic signatures. Syn-orogenic, stratabound Cu-Co mineralisation resulted mainly from remobilisation of diagenetic sulphides. A limited, renewed contribution of metals from felsic basement rocks might be indicated by the isotope ratios in the western part of the Copperbelt, where the metamorphic grade is the lowest.
