Abstract:
"Plantations and the Politics of Sugar" focuses upon the development and persistence of plantations within the framework of state policy. The data in the book provides a comprehensive overview of the sugar industry and locates it within the policy environment. The book further reveals the emergence of tension between policy and practice in the areas of land, labour and capital. It touches key issues like immigration and importation of labourers from neighbouring countries. (DÜI-Dec)
