The 'Yellow Peril' was in full swing. And yet, in 1904, the British government imported over 64,000 Chinese indentured labourers to work on gold mines in Southern Africa. This book explores the decision to import Chinese labour so soon after the empire had fought to secure Southern Africa for the British Empire and despite the already tense racial situation in the region. This enables a clearer understanding of racial and political developments in Southern Africa during the reconstruction period and the formation of South Africa the nation. It places these localised issues within a wider historiography, such as research into colonial violence, moral panics and Black Perils, networks of labourism and whiteness, and economic imperialism. Through this book one can trace the complicated negotiations between national and imperial identities, between independence and patriotism, and giving a clearer sense of how trans-colonial relationships evolved"--$$cProvided by publisher. 001457336 588__ $$aDescription based on print version record. 001457336 650_0 $$aChinese$$zSouth Africa$$xHistory$$y20th century. 001457336 650_0 $$aContract labor$$zSouth Africa$$xHistory$$y20th century. 001457336 650_0 $$aImmigrants$$zSouth Africa$$xHistory$$y20th century. 001457336 650_0 $$aViolence$$zSouth Africa$$xHistory$$y20th century. 001457336 650_0 $$aImperialism$$xHistory$$y20th century. 001457336 650_0 $$aImperialism$$xEconomic aspects$$xHistory$$y20th century. 001457336 651_0 $$aSouth Africa$$xRace relations$$xHistory$$y20th century. 001457336 651_0 $$aSouth Africa$$xEmigration and immigration$$xHistory$$y20th century. 001457336 651_0 $$aSouth Africa$$xPolitics and government$$y1836-1909. 001457336 651_0 $$aGreat Britain$$xColonies$$zAfrica$$xHistory$$y20th century. 001457336 655_0 $$aElectronic books 001457336 77608 $$iPrint version:$$aBright, Rachel.$$tChinese labour in South Africa, 1902-10 : race, violence, and global spectacle.$$dHoundmills, Basingstoke, Hampshire : Palgrave Macmillan, 2013$$z9780230303775$$w(DLC)10859893 001457336 830_0 $$aCambridge imperial and post-colonial series. 001457336 852__ $$bebk 001457336 85640 $$3ProQuest Ebook Central Academic Complete $$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://ebookcentral.proquest.com/lib/usiricelib-ebooks/detail.action?docID=1588772$$zOnline Access 001457336 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1457336$$pGLOBAL_SET 001457336 980__ $$aBIB 001457336 980__ $$aEBOOK 001457336 982__ $$aEbook 001457336 983__ $$aOnline
