Publisher Description:
Social Approaches to an Industrial Past addresses the social issues of mining communities in research spanning a period of 4,500 years. The volume considers themes which are relatively new to archaeology:
* the social context of production
* gender
* power and labour exploitation
* imperialism and colonialism
* production and technology
