Description: Vilimani is an examination of the social & environmental consequences of labour migration in early colonial Tanzania. Drawing on a number of case studies, the author examines transformations in slaver & porterage, social & work life on plantations & railways, gendered conflict at the household & village levels, and the way in which rural social change intersected with the Maji Maji rebellion of 1905.
Key Points: Framed within the context of the industrialisation of Germany, this study looks at some of the social consequences of labour migration, the motivations of colonial wage workers, & how labour migrants came to shape many aspects of the colonial economy.
