"The Power of Love: Diamonds and the Accumulation of De Beers" Video of a presentation by DT Cochrane November 19, 2013, York University, Toronto
ABSTRACT:Through the early-20th century, the power of the De Beers’ diamond cartel was dwindling. Its resurrection came with WWII. The company’s reversal of fortune required the construction and maintenance of relations with romantic couples, industrial diamond users, multiple government agencies and diamonds themselves. This presentation examines De Beers’ accumulation and the translation of these qualitative relationships into capital.
