In the shadow of the vine :Child labor in post-apartheid South Africa.
Levine, Susan Lauren.

In the shadow of the vine :Child labor in post-apartheid South Africa.[electronic resource] - 216 p.

Chair: Thomas C. Patterson.

Thesis (Ph.D.)--Temple University, 2000.

This dissertation explores recent transformations in child labor legislation in the wake of rapid democratic political change in South Africa. It reflects on working children's agency and their defense of their rights to work, drawing on ethnographic research in the winelands of the Western Cape Province. The dissertation argues that recent anti-child labor campaigns in South Africa fail to provide economic solutions for destitute black and Coloured children who depend on remunerated vineyard work to sustain household economies. It contends that international legislation prohibiting child labor is myopic because it ignores the key role that children play in the global flexible labor market and, by desegregating child from adult exploitation, perpetuates the economic conditions, which give rise to child labor.
