Split Labor Markets and Black-White Relations, 1865-1920.

Marks, Carole

Phylon, v42 n4 p293-308 Dec 1981

This paper modifies Edna Bonacich's theory of class conflict which cites the split labor market during the period of 1920-30 as the cause of racial antagonisms. The author states that Bonacich neglected the role of employers and technological advance in the creation of the split labor market. (ML)
