This book provides an important contribution to the economic history of modern China. It examines the history of the coal mining industry - one of China's largest and most important - from the beginnings of modernisation around 1895 to the start of the Sino-Japanese War in 1937. It addresses questions of both economic and socio-political history and contributes to our knowledge of many aspects of early twentieth-century Chinese history. It examines the slow growth of the modern sector of the Chinese economy and considers the effects of foreign investment and ownership, the supply of capital, the technology of production, the availability of local entrepreneurship and compares the evolution of the Chinese coal industry with development elsewhere. This book will be of interest to those concerned with the problems of industrial growth in general as well as to specialists on modern China.

Excerpt from The Economics of Coal: From the Coal Seam to the Consumer's Cellar; With Special Reference to the Reports of the Coal Industry Commission Mr. John Thomas has contributed in this little pamphlet a most useful addition to the growing volume of literature dealing with Coal Mines and Coal Miners. He sets forth in a simple, direct way most of the economic and human factors which are employed in the production and distribution of the commodity coal. His analysis reveals the factors, both essential and non-essential at present which have their being in the industry. Broadly speaking, the essential factors are those described as the Raw Material Coal, and the labour of considerably over a million workpeople, both manual and mental, who contribute to the removal of the coal from its position in the earth to the consumer. There is no other general classification, than the foregoing possible, when describing the essential factors. Such factors as capital, both fixed and variable, are provided in the last analysis by the factor of labour, both manual and mental. The non-essential factors are those represented by those people who do nothing but provide money capital for the carrying on of the industry, and who for such provision receive dividends upon the money so provided out of the difference between the price labour obtains, as wages and salary, the cost of the raw materials described generally as stores, timber, etc., and the price obtained for the coal upon the markets of the world. It is claimed that to describe the providers of capital as non-essential factors is to make the facts. But when it is seen, as it can plainly be seen in the pages of this pamphlet, that the provision of capital need not be bound up with the personality of any particular individual, their strictly non-essential character is at once made plain. A little more quiet thought on the part of the productive class, a little more organisation on the part of the community generally will result in the elimination of these non-essential, though burdensome factors. When the producers have sufficient confidence in their ability to run the mining industry in the interests of the community instead of, as now, it being run for the obvious purpose of providing dividend for holders for money capital, the non-essential factors will disappear. This little pamphlet will certainly help in the accomplishment of such a task. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

This book is the 2nd edition of the Economics of the International Coal Trade. Coal is the single most important source of power on our planet and today accounts for 40% of electricity generation and 30% of primary energy. The world’s appetite for energy is still far from being met. Until 2050, an additional 6+ billion people will require accessto proper power. “Why Coal Continues to Power the World” introduces the reader to the global coal business; its importance; its source; its global demand, supply and trade; its use; its environmental impact; and its future. Despite recent price hikes, coal does not appear to be a popular subject today, which may explain the little attention it receives in the scientific community. Since writing the first edition during the commodity super cycle in 2006–2008, the world has changed. How has this impacted the global world of coal? This book is useful to energy economists, businessmen, politicians, university professors, high school teachers, students and anyone with an interest in how the world is powered. It is also helpful to anyone studying climate change and global warming. This new edition of the book includes previously not covered special sections on:* Coal analysis and sampling with a special section on moisture * A technical summary of all key coking coal characteristics in Appendix 2 * Coking coal, iron ore and the steel industry * Cement and petcoke markets * Global gas markets and the shale gas revolution in the US * Nuclear energy and the history of the oil market * Renewable energy and the German „Energiewende“ * Power plant technology and CO2 sequestration and processing * The role of CO2 and why man-made CO2 does not cause global warming Apart from giving an in-depth overview of the global coal business, in this book the author argues that coal is far from “dead”. Some of my key messages are contrary to popular beliefs: The importance of coal will further increase in absolute and likely even in relative terms for decades to come. Man-made CO2 has no effect on global temperatures and combustion of fossil fuels does not influence the weather. We cannot stop the advance of coal, we can only make this process as environmentally sustainable as humanly possible. Therefore, mankind needs to embrace coal as the “bridge” from the Oil Age to the Solar Age (through the “New Energy Revolution”). (4) Industrialized nations have to invest in coal and in all means to more efficiently burn coal in order to truly help the global environment and reduce global dust, SOX, and NOX emissions.

Coal mining is one of China’s largest industries, and provides an excellent case study through which to consider the broader issues of China’s transition from socialism to capitalism, focussing on the shift to a market economy, the rise of rural industry and the situation of China’s working class. Coal was one of the pillars of the planned economy but, the author argues, its shift to market-based operations has been protracted and difficult, particularly in moving from the artificially low prices of the planned economy to market prescribed prices - a change that had a major impact on the industry’s financial performance. The book goes on to considers the growth of small rural coal mines as part of the Township and Village Enterprises (TVEs) programme; these small mines have brought prosperity to areas where small manufacturing enterprises are not competitive, but at the same time have been the cause of many social and environmental problems. It also examines the situation of coal miners - arguably one the most vulnerable segments of the Chinese working class - under socialism and under capitalism, paying particular attention to the issue of work safety and coal mine disasters. The book provides a comprehensive and coherent treatment of these issues from the establishment of the People’s Republic up to 2010.

While most studies of labor in the coal industry focus on the struggle to organize unions, this work offers a more diverse and quantitative examination of the labor market. It regards the economic lives of the bituminous coal miners in the early twentieth century. Fishback's analytic framework encompasses competition among employers for labor, the legal environment, institutional development in response to transactions costs as well as the impact of labor unions on the coal industry. Utilizing economic theory and statistics, Fishback reveals the models hidden in the descriptions of events, and then tests their internal consistency as well as the hypotheses they generate.
