ORGANISE OR DIE Democracy and Leadership in South Africa`s NUM by Raphael Botiveau

Softcover in very good condition. Published in 2017 with 344 pages and b/w photographs. This is the first in-depth study of one of the leading trade unions in the country. Founded in 1982 the union played a key role in the struggle against white minority rule, before turning into a central protagonist of the ruling Triparty Alliance after Apartheid. The book sheds light on the path that led to the 2012 Marikana massacre, the dissolution of the Congress of South African Trade Unions (Cosatu) federation and to fractures within the ANC itself.  No shipping overseas.
