| Zusammenfassung: | During the Zimbabwean crisis, millions crossed through the apartheid-era border fence, searching for ways to make ends meet. Maxim Bolt explores the lives of Zimbabwean migrant labourers, of settled black farm workers and their dependants, and of white farmers and managers, as they intersect on the border between Zimbabwe and South Africa. Focusing on one farm, this book investigates the role of a hub of wage labour in a place of crisis. A close ethnographic study, it addresses the complex, shifting labour and life conditions in northern South Africa's agricultural borderlands. Underlying these challenges are the Zimbabwean political and economic crisis of the 2000s and the intensified pressures on commercial agriculture in South Africa following market liberalization and post-apartheid land reform. But, amidst uncertainty, farmers and farm workers strive for stability. The farms on South Africa's margins are centers of gravity, islands of residential labour in a sea of informal arrangements |

Maxim Bolt explores the lives of Zimbabwean migrant labourers, of settled black farm workers and their dependants, and of white farmers and managers, as they intersect on the border between Zimbabwe and South Africa. Focusing on one farm, this book investigates the role of a hub of wage labour in a place of crisis. A close ethnographic study, it addresses the complex, shifting labour and life conditions in northern South Africa's agricultural borderlands. Underlying these challenges are the Zimbabwean political and economic crisis of the 2000s and the intensified pressures on commercial agriculture in South Africa following market liberalization and post-apartheid land reform. But, amidst uncertainty, farmers and farm workers strive for stability. The farms on South Africa's margins are centers of gravity, islands of residential labour in a sea of informal arrangements Migrant agricultural laborers / South Africa / Social conditions Foreign workers, Zimbabwean / South Africa Farmers / South Africa Borderlands / South Africa Borderlands / Zimbabwe Grenzgebiet (DE-588)4021993-8 gnd rswk-swf Auswanderer (DE-588)4131725-7 gnd rswk-swf Soziale Situation (DE-588)4077575-6 gnd rswk-swf Ausländischer Arbeitnehmer (DE-588)4003743-5 gnd rswk-swf Landwirtschaftlicher Betrieb (DE-588)4073995-8 gnd rswk-swf Südafrika (Staat) South Africa / Race relations / 21st century Südafrika (DE-588)4078012-0 gnd rswk-swf Simbabwe (DE-588)4049850-5 gnd rswk-swf Südafrika (DE-588)4078012-0 g Ausländischer Arbeitnehmer (DE-588)4003743-5 s Landwirtschaftlicher Betrieb (DE-588)4073995-8 s Soziale Situation (DE-588)4077575-6 s 1\p DE-604 Grenzgebiet (DE-588)4021993-8 s Simbabwe (DE-588)4049850-5 g 2\p DE-604 Auswanderer (DE-588)4131725-7 s 3\p DE-604 Erscheint auch als Druckausgabe 978-1-107-11122-6 Erscheint auch als Druckausgabe 978-1-107-52783-6 https://doi.org/10.1017/CBO9781316275733 Verlag URL des Erstveröffentlichers Volltext 1\p cgwrk 20201028 DE-101 https://d-nb.info/provenance/plan#cgwrk 2\p cgwrk 20201028 DE-101 https://d-nb.info/provenance/plan#cgwrk 3\p cgwrk 20201028 DE-101 https://d-nb.info/provenance/plan#cgwrk |
