About the author

I currently teach at Rhodes University, the Eastern Cape, where I direct the Neil Aggett Labour Studies Unit (NALSU). I am 10th generation South African, and my work focuses on South Africa; I have also done research in Namibia, Zambia, and Zimbabwe. My main areas include the neo-liberal restructuring of state-owned corporations; trade unions and other working-class movements, including labour and left history; anarchism and syndicalism. I have a long history of involvement in working-class movements, and in workers and popular education.

I have taught at three universities, for the Anti-Privatisation Forum (APF), DITSELA and the Global Labour University (GLU), and have taught in (and been a coordinator for) the NUMSA/ Wits short course programme, merSETA/ Rhodes/ metalworkers’ unions short courses, and the Vuyisile Mini Workers Schools.

My writings have been translated into quite a few languages, among them Croat, French, German, Greek, Italian, Japanese, Portuguese, Romanian, Sotho, Spanish, and Zulu.
