| Abstract: | By examining the leadership of the major political organisation of the time, the Transvaal Native Congress, the author provides a detailed exploration of class dynamics on the Rand, South Africa. Here in a period of intense agitation and working-class mobilisation one sees the instability of the group and the extent to which its ideology was articulated with and moulded by pressures and inducements from capital and labour.
