In Black and Gold, Anthony Sampson provides an original insight into a critical frontier of the South African crisis - the relationship between big business and the black political movements on which the country's future depends.
Drawing upon his special knowledge of the workings of multinationals as well as rare insight gained from personal contact with black leaders, including Nelson Mandela and Oliver Tambo, he traces the problem from the first confrontations when early diamond and gold millionaires employed black miners, creating a new kind of urban black nationalism. He shows how the multinationals which arrived in the sixties were seen by blacks as apologists and paymasters, following ferocious Afrikaner apartheid.
One must bear in mind that this book was published in 1987.
Soft cover, fairly good condition, although the cover is bent in places.
