Karl Marx's theory of rent under capitalist mode of production (Marx, 1981), as social/class relations, is utilized to provide a conceptual framework of such peculiar relations. While this framework consists of many different but interrelated parts, my focus is the integration of class struggle into this theory of rent and to historicize this framework into the mining industry within a broader context of capitalist development in Indonesia. In this respect, this dissertation also provides a specific conception of historical capitalism for Indonesia.Author owns copyright, except where explicitly noted.
