The West needs to look further if it wants to understand how workers' self-organization is developing in countries it too often ignores. Across the Global South, peasant communities are forced off the land to live and work in harsh and impoverished conditions. Inevitably, new methods of combating the spread of industrial capitalism are evolving in ambitious, militant and creative ways. Southern Insurgency will lead the way in examining these organizations in the contemporary era. Immanuel Ness looks at three key countries: China, India and South Africa. In each case he considers the broader historical forces at play -- the effects of imperialism, the decline of the trade union movement, the class struggle and the effects of the growing reserve army of labor. For each case study, he narrows his focus to reveal the specifics of each grassroots insurgency: the militancy of the miners in South Africa, the new labor organizations in India and export promotion and the rise of worker insurgency in China. A result of intensive, dedicated firsthand research, at the heart of Southern Insurgency is a study of the nature of the new industrial proletariat in the Global South - a terrifying, precarious existence - but also one of experimentation, solidarity and struggle. -- Provided by publisher. 410 0$aWildcat (Pluto Press) 606 $aWorking class$zDeveloping countries 606 $aLabor unions$zDeveloping countries 606 $aWorking class 606 $aWorking class$zSouth Africa 606 $aWorking class$zIndia 606 $aWorking class$zChina 606 $aRace relations 606 $aDiscrimination$zDeveloping countries 606 $aSOCIAL SCIENCE / Discrimination & Race Relations$2bisacsh 606 $aSOCIAL SCIENCE / Minority Studies$2bisacsh 606 $aDiscrimination$2fast$3(OCoLC)fst00894985 606 $aLabor unions$2fast$3(OCoLC)fst00990260 606 $aRace relations$2fast$3(OCoLC)fst01086509 606 $aWorking class$2fast$3(OCoLC)fst01180418 606 $aKlassenkampf$2gnd$3(DE-588)4130866-9$3(DE-603)085464503 606 $aArbeiterbewegung$2gnd$3(DE-588)4002581-0$3(DE-603)084998148 606 $aGewerkschaft$2gnd$3(DE-588)4020872-2$3(DE-603)085050695 607 $aChina$2fast 607 $aDeveloping countries$2fast 607 $aIndia$2fast 607 $aSouth Africa$2fast 607 $aIndien$2gnd 607 $aChina$2gnd 607 $aSu?dafrika$2gnd 615 0$aWorking class 615 0$aLabor unions 615 0$aWorking class. 615 0$aWorking class 615 0$aWorking class 615 0$aWorking class 615 0$aRace relations. 615 0$aDiscrimination 615 7$aSOCIAL SCIENCE / Discrimination & Race Relations. 615 7$aSOCIAL SCIENCE / Minority Studies. 615 7$aDiscrimination. 615 7$aLabor unions. 615 7$aRace relations. 615 7$aWorking class. 615 7$aKlassenkampf. 615 7$aArbeiterbewegung. 615 7$aGewerkschaft. 676 $a305.562091724 700 $aNess$b Immanuel$0864151 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910815251703321 996 $aSouthern insurgency$94077052 997 $aUNINA
