Focuses on the changes from a typical colonial plantation economy in decline at the start of the century, towards an agrarian economy dominated by small-scale production units until the second world war, and ultimately to a mining economy highly affected by the boom-bust cycles of the bauxite and aluminium market. 8/22/02 JOY_D A 47779 47779
