Reviews

Original Reviews of Endgame in South Africa? ‘Cohen draws fruitfully on the work by human geographers on the relationship between spatial patterns and social relations. His sophisticated analysis of the role of ideology is offered with wit and insight.’ Jack Spence Times Literary Supplement, 15 August 1986. ‘In Endgame in South Africa, Robin Cohen has produced a short, intelligent book … Cohen has a great talent for sifting particularly telling nuggets – facts, obscure events, quotations – from the mass of data he commands.’ – Kenneth Vickery International Journal of African Historical Studies, 21 (2) 1988. ‘As might be expected from one of the leading figures in the field, Cohen’s short book is ably written, refreshingly free of conceptual clutter, authoritative in its deployment of comparative insights and lucid in exposition.’ – Richard Moorsam Third World Quarterly, 9 (2) April 1987
