A healthy and sustainable mining sector should accordingly form part of the focus of our efforts to heal this country and its people. Nevertheless, the history of mining in South Africa has been and continues to be characterised by the oppression and exploitation of workers under the policy of the migratory system. The new dispensation of 1994, rule under the African National Congress, did not assist much in changing the conditions at the mines. It continues to turn a blind eye to the unjust wages and living and working conditions of miners. Six years after the Marikana massacre we have still seen minimal change for mineworkers and mining communities. Although much has been written about the days leading up to 16 August 2012 and how little has been done, few have analysed the policies and system that make such a tragedy possible. Lonmin Platinum Mine and the events of 16 August are a microcosm of the mining sector and how things can go wrong when society leaves everything to government and "big business". Business as Usual after Marikana is a comprehensive analysis of mining in South Africa. Written by respected academics and practitioners in the field, it looks into the history, policies and business practices that brought us to this point. It also examines how bigger global companies like BASF were directly or indirectly responsible, and yet nothing is done to keep them accountable"--https://www.angusrobertson.com.au/books/business-as-usual-after-marikana/p/9781928232575 610 20 $a Lonmin (Firm) 610 20 $a BASF Aktiengesellschaft. 610 27 $a BASF Aktiengesellschaft. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00578411 610 27 $a Lonmin (Firm) $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01975763 650 0 $a Platinum mines and mining $z Rustenburg. $z Rustenburg. 650 0 $a Platinum industry $z South Africa. 650 0 $a Massacres $z Rustenburg. $z Rustenburg. 650 0 $a Business and politics $z South Africa. 650 0 $a Industrial relations $z South Africa. 650 0 $a Human rights $z South Africa. 650 0 $a Investments, Foreign $x Moral and ethical aspects $z South Africa. 650 0 $a Strikes and lockouts $x Miners $z Rustenburg. $z Rustenburg. 651 0 $a South Africa $x Foreign economic relations $z Germany. 651 0 $a Germany $x Foreign economic relations $z South Africa. 650 7 $a Business and politics. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00842401 650 7 $a Human rights. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00963285 650 7 $a Industrial relations. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00971609 650 7 $a International economic relations. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00976891 650 7 $a Investments, Foreign $x Moral and ethical aspects. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00978394 650 7 $a Massacres. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01011476 650 7 $a Platinum industry. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01066863 650 7 $a Platinum mines and mining. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01066866 650 7 $a Strikes and lockouts $x Miners. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01135156 651 7 $a Germany. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01210272 651 7 $a South Africa. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01204616 651 7 $a South Africa $z Rustenburg. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01204615 700 1 $a Grimm, Maren, $e editor. 700 1 $a Krameritsch, Jakob, $e editor. 700 1 $a Becker, Britta, $e editor. 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20191122012058.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=6C3BDCFA462211E9A3F20F6897128E48Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
