    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.

    GEOTHERMAL RESOURCE INDICATIONS OF THE GEOLOGIC DEVELOPMENT AND HYDROTHERMAL ACTIVITIES OF D.R.C. Getahun Demissie Addis Abeba, Ethiopia, [email protected] ABSTRACT Published sources report the occurrence of more than 135 thermal springs in D.R.C. All occur in the eastern part of the country, in association with the Western rift and the associated rifted and faulted terrains lying to its west. Limited information was available on the characteristics of the thermal features and the natural conditions under which they occur. Literature study of the regional distribution of these features and of the few relatively better known thermal spring areas, coupled with the evaluation of the gross geologic conditions yielded encouraging results. The occurrence of the anomalously large number of thermal springs is attributed to the prevalence of abnormally high temperature conditions in the upper crust induced by a particularly high standing region of anomalously hot asthenosphere. Among the 29 thermal springs the locations of which could be determined, eight higher temperature features which occur in six geologic environments were found to warrant further investigation. The thermal springs occur in all geologic terrains. Thermal fluid ascent from depth is generally influenced by faulting while its emergence at the surface is controlled by the near-surface hydrology. These factors allow the adoption of simple hydrothermal fluid circulation models which can guide exploration. Field observations and thermal water sampling for chemical analyses are recommended for acquiring the data which will allow the selection of the most promising prospects for detailed, integrated multidisciplinary exploration. An order of priorities is suggested based on economic and technical criteria.

  • District Du Haut Katanga
    CONTEXTE : District du Haut Katanga: Lubumbashi: • Du 01 au 02 octobre, il s’est tenu la réunion de la Tripartite Plus. Ces assises ont regroupé les Chefs d’Etat-Major des pays membres de la Tripartite Plus à savoir le Burundi, l’Ouganda, le Rwanda, et la RDC en présence (sous la facilitation) du Commandant de la Force de la MONUC et de l’Attaché de Défense des Etats-Unis en RDC. La prochaine réunion de la Tripartite Plus se tiendra à Kampala en Ouganda au mois de janvier 2008. • Le 02/10/07, la pluie qui s’est abattue dans la ville de Lubumbashi et ses environs, a causé de dégâts matériels dans certains quartiers. A Kipushi, une femme est décédée de suite d’électrocution par la foudre. • Selon les informations relayées par les partenaires, des tracasseries sont perpétrées par le chargé de l’antenne des Affaires humanitaires installé à Bukama à l’endroit des acteurs humanitaires notamment dans la réinstallation des sinistrés des inondations initiée par l’ONG locale AME. OCHA a saisi les autorités locales sur ce dossier. Grâce à cette intervention, MSF-B a pu poursuivre les travaux de forage des puits dans ce site. • De violentes manifestations organisées à Kolwezi par des creuseurs artisanaux se sont soldées par d’importants dégâts matériels dont l’incendie de quelques maisons des cadres de la GECAMINES. Ces manifestations font suite aux mesures prises par la GECAMINES portant interdiction de la vente, en dehors de cette entreprise, des minerais puisés dans sa concession. • Dans la nuit du 05/10/07, une femme a été violée par des hommes en uniforme au quartier Kalemuka, située à 7 km du centre ville de Lubumbashi.

Mortelmans de bien vouloir préciser la situation des industries paléolithiques du Congo belge et plus particulièrement de préciser la notion d'un hiatus culturel pendant le Kamasien s.l. M. Mortelmans répond qu'effectivement il semble qu'aux latitudes du Congo il y ait eu, pendant les plu­ viaux, un trop grand développement de la forêt. Celle-ci devait refouler les hommes primitifs vers des zones moins arborées où l'on rencontre effectivement leurs traces nombreuses. Au Katanga, par exemple, seules les Pebble-Cultures, qui encadrent le premier interpluvial, et l'Acheuléen terminal, suivi du Sangoen, qui pré­ cèdent la grande dessiccation fin-kanjérienne, sont abondamment représentés.

  • 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.
