Proletarianisation in the Third World - Studies in the Creation of a Labour Force Under Dependent Capitalism (Hardcover)

First published in 1984, this collection of twelve case studies examines the emergence of a free wage-labour force in all regions of the third world. Although the struggle and conflict through which the proletariat has achieved a degree off class consciousness is not neglected, the more dominant theme is that of the process and techniques which have created a working class on the capitalist periphery.
