These three nations, with a shared and interconnected history, were drawn into the British Empire at approximately the same time, forming the ill-fated Federation of Rhodesia and Nyasaland in the mid-twentieth century. This formal political union fostered closer economic and social ties, leading to a more interconnected region.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eHowever, despite their shared past, comparative research on the economic histories of Malawi, Zambia, and Zimbabwe, and how these evolve over time, remains relatively scarce. This book aims to bridge this gap by presenting the first comprehensive collection of labor and census data spanning the entire twentieth century for these three countries. By examining the diverse economic models and performances of these states, researchers gain valuable insights into different development paradigms and their long-term outcomes.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe book offers valuable data on population growth, change, industrial and occupational structure, and the various shifts in the economically active population. It serves as a valuable resource for historians, economists, development studies scholars, and non-governmental organizations engaged in studying twentieth-century and contemporary southern Africa. This comprehensive analysis sheds light on the complex dynamics that shaped these nations' development paths and provides valuable insights into the challenges and opportunities they faced throughout the century.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\n                            \u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 498g\n                            \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 162 x 241 x 21 (mm)\n                            \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9780367467760\n                            \n                          \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Rory Pilossof,Andrew Cohen","offers":[{"title":"Hardback","offer_id":44103732953338,"sku":"9780367467760","price":147.56,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/3750e3a955230a507ffe7ab017a36755.jpg?v=1633660005","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/labour-and-economic-change-in-southern-africa-c-1900-2000-zimbabwe-zambia-and-malawi","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
