The Social organization of Plantation Mackenzie: an account of life in the Guyana mining enterprises

Quamina, Odida T.

This paper is part of a larger study on trade unionism and workers' participation in the bauxite mining industry. The author shows links between living and working conditions on the sugar plantations and in the mining company -- the structures and ideologies of anti-participation that create social control mechanisms over the lives of every resident.
