Book Synopsis iJuba A South African Journey by : Jonah Becker
Download or read book iJuba A South African Journey written by Jonah Becker and published by Jonah Becker. This book was released on 2012-03-06 with total page 78 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a true story. The events detailed in this book took place as reported, over little more than a year. The dialogue is reproduced as accurately as possible, without censorship or bowing to political correctness. The author has drawn together his recollection of his youthful experiences on a farm in rural Natal, South Africa during the apartheid years. The narrative is a thought provoking blend of racism, humour, horror, sex, violence and social observation set in a time of social and political upheaval. The final chapter recalls the author's subsequent trip to Marion Island in the sub Antarctic, also a part of South Africa. The island's environment, wild creatures and the often bizarre behaviour of its isolated human inhabitants are described in a direct and often humorous fashion. This is described as a journey. The author passes through the South African landscape from one end of the country to the other and then by sea to its farthest outpost, the weather station on Marion Island. The actions and utterances of the real people that he meets give an insight into the popular thinking of that time. Although sometimes shocking, this was the real South Africa of the late 1970's, un-filtered by the hype and simplification that may have coloured our memories.The narrative is supported by appropriate newspaper headlines from the time, to lend real historical perspective to the story.

Download or read book Foreign Native written by RW. JOHNSON and published by . This book was released on 2021-02-04 with total page 292 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Foreign Native, political commentator and author RW Johnson looks back with affection and humour on his life in Africa. From schooldays in Durban to later years as an Oxford don, director of the Helen Suzman Foundation and formidable political commentator, Johnson has produced an entertaining and occasionally eye-popping memoir brimming with history, anecdote and insight. Johnson charts his evolution from enthusiastic, left-leaning Africanist to political realist, relating episodes that influenced his intellectual worldview, including time spent among the exiled liberation movements in London during the 1960s, a sojourn in newly independent Guinea and more recent forays into Zimbabwe. There are wonderful stories, some hilarious, others filled with pathos, about the multitude of characters that he met along the way. Perceptive, critical and full of verve, Foreign Nativeis leavened with a deep humanity that is a pleasure to read.

This book was released on 2019-06-26 with total page 236 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The African Continental Free Trade Area (AfCFTA) represents a historic opportunity for the continent to boost intra-African trade and accelerate structural transformation. However, this relies on a critical policy instrument: the effective implementation of preferential trade liberalization among the AfCFTA members. Whether in practice African firms will utilize tariff preferences under the AfCFTA depends on a critical factor: rules of origin (RoO) and the net benefits of complying with them. This report argues for the adoption of flexible RoO and a strengthening of institutional capacities to ensure an impartial, transparent, predictable, consistent and neutral implementation of agreed RoO.
Download or read book We Brothers written by Peter Fourie and published by Austin Macauley Publishers. This book was released on 2024-02-02 with total page 189 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Daniel wants to become a lawyer to right the wrongs he believes have been inflicted on his people by the white colonisers. His schoolteacher convinces him that he can arrange a university education. Instead, he is abducted and is trained as a terrorist. He returns to his country and uses his skills to fight the invaders of his land. Peter fulfils his ambition to be a pilot, flying a combat helicopter against the country’s enemies who are seeking to overthrow the government. Often flying into action with only a Perspex windscreen to protect him, he has to learn to control his fear. This is the story of boys forced into different sides of a war, pawns of the architects of the conflict, Cecil Rhodes, Robert Mugabe and other nationalists, Ian Smith the Rhodesian Prime Minister, and his nemesis, British PM Harold Wilson. As the two become men and seek their destinies, they become adversaries in an unconventional conflict that causes significant loss of life and injuries, untold misery, and results in the devastation of a country once described as ‘Africa’s bread basket,’ and which became ‘Africa’s basket case.’ The terrorist and the pilot meet several times on opposing sides of the Rhodesian Bush War determined to prevail. On one side, a terrorist skilled in terrorising the population using hit and run tactics. On the other, a highly skilled pilot flying a highly manoeuvrable aircraft with significant speed, armament, and height advantages. Can there be any winners in this conflict?
