Pnina Werbner
shows how dignity, justice and morality underlay the
resurgence of the Manual Workers Union and how these claims were
to find support in the courts.There is no account that rivals her astute
understanding of the marriage of worker militancy and civic activism in
Africa.This is a formidable achievement.
Professor Robin
С
It is now more than
50
years since the original publication of The Making
of the English Working Class by E.R Thompson. This book follows Thompson
in exploring the formation of working-class identity among low-paid African
workers. In arguing for a radical public anthropology of worker identity the book
seeks to analyse the cultural, legal, ideological and experiential dimensions of
labour activism often neglected in other labour studies.
Pnina Werbner shows that by fusing cosmopolitan and local popular cultural
forms of protest, unionists have created a distinctive, vernacular way of being
a worker in Botswana: one that does not deny workers roots at home, in the
countryside, while being cognisant of a wider world of cosmopolitan labour
rights.The assertion of working class dignity, honour and respect, Pnina argues,
is a powerful motivating force for manual workers.
Against legal-sceptical approaches, Werbner argues that in challenging
the government
-
their employer
-
in court, manual workers protests and
mobilisation are deeply embedded in ethics, social justice and the law.
is Professor
Emerita
of Social Anthropology at Keele University.
She is the author of the Manchester Migration Trilogy which includes The
Migration Process, Imagined
Diasporas
and Pilgrims of Love. Werbner is also
editor of several books including Anthropology and the New Cosmopolitanism
and The Political Aesthetics of Global Revolt.
