Description

• Author: V.L. Allen

 Vic Allen was present in South Africa for much of this period and had unique access to leaders and documents behind the scenes.
 

The formation of the National Union of Mineworkers in 1982, its aim for solidarity amongst mineworkers, opposition from the Chamber of Mines and the struggle for survival after the strike defeat by the Anglo American Corporation in 1987.

As the crisis of Apartheid intensified the NUM played a crucial role in winning support for both the African National Congress and the South African Communist Party. It aided both organisations by re-creating their infra-structures through the provision of accommodation, national and local officials and finance.

Key Features include:
The Human costs of mining: housing, women, HIV/AIDS and the ongoing impact of Asbestosis, compensation.

The NUM and the crisis in Apartheid: the formation of COSATU, its adoption of the Freedom Charter and the emergence of Workerism, violence and assassinations in eastern Transvaal and KwaZulu Natal. Mine disasters, strikes and violent internecine struggles.

Political conflicts and developments leading to the first democratic election in 1994.
