Add your own review!

Overview

As South Africa has entered the third decade after the end of apartheid, this book aims at taking stock of the post-apartheid dynamics in the, so far, often less-comprehensively analysed, but crucial fields of APRM-relevant politics, social development, land and regional relations. In the first part of the book an analysis of some structuring domestic features of post-apartheid South Africa is provided, with a focus on political processes and debates around gender, HIV/AIDS and religion. The second part of the volume focuses on the land question and part three is looking at South Africa's role in the Southern African region. Contributors are: Nancy Andrew, Nicholas Dietrich, Ulf Engel, Harvey M. Feinberg, Anna-Maria Gentili, Preben Kaarsholm, Mandisa Mbali, David Moore, Arrigo Pallotti, Roberta Pellizzoli, Chris Saunders, Timothy Scarnecchia, Cherryl Walker, Lorenzo Zambernardi, and Mario Zamponi.

Reviews

'Die behandelten und sinnvoll ausgewahlten Schwerpunkte des Buches illustrieren, wie erkenntnisreich internationaler Forschungs dialog sein kann und worauf zukunftiger Wissenschaftsaustausch aufbauen koennte. Der Sammelband motiviert aber auch die Leser/-innen zu kritischen Reflexionen uber die vielschichtigen Entwicklungen in Sudafrika nach dem Ende der Apartheid'. Rita Schafer in Peripherie 146/147, 37. Jg 2017, pp. 363-365.
