Book Synopsis Morning in South Africa by : John Campbell
Download or read book Morning in South Africa written by John Campbell and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2016-05-12 with total page 244 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This incisive, deeply informed book introduces post-apartheid South Africa to an international audience. South Africa has a history of racism and white supremacy. This crushing historical burden continues to resonate today. Under President Jacob Zuma, South Africa is treading water. Nevertheless, despite calls to undermine the 1994 political settlement characterized by human rights guarantees and the rule of law, distinguished diplomat John Campbell argues that the country’s future is bright and that its democratic institutions will weather its current lackluster governance. The book opens with an overview to orient readers to South Africa’s historical inheritance. A look back at the presidential inaugurations of Nelson Mandela and Jacob Zuma and Mandela’s funeral illustrates some of the ways South Africa has indeed changed since 1994. Reviewing current demographic trends, Campbell highlights the persistent consequences of apartheid. He goes on to consider education, health, and current political developments, including land reform, with an eye on how South Africa’s democracy is responding to associated thorny challenges. The book ends with an assessment of why prospects are currently poor for closer South African ties with the West. Campbell concludes, though, that South Africa’s democracy has been surprisingly adaptable, and that despite intractable problems, the black majority are no longer strangers in their own country.

In addition to offering a rare close portrait, Zelda la Grange pays tribute to Madiba as she knew him—a teacher who gave her the most valuable lessons of her life.

Inspiring and deeply felt, this book honors a great man’s lasting gift.

Across the bridge, in the wealthy white suburbs, Jack plans to spend his last days in Johannesburg burning miles on his beat-up Mustang--until he meets Zanele. Working in her father's shop, Meena finds a packet of banned pamphlets. A series of chance meetings sets off a chain of events--a failed plot, a murdered teacher, a forbidden love and a growing student movement that sweeps across the country like a blazing fire.

Book Synopsis Good Morning Africa by : Uchechukwu Godwin Simon
Download or read book Good Morning Africa written by Uchechukwu Godwin Simon and published by . This book was released on 2013-05 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Good Morning, Africa is a compendium of series of poetry collection on the African dream, Sierra Leone experience, the power of regeneration, and love and life in general. Africa in recent time has experienced a series of wars that seriously threatened the corporate existence of most of its states and brought untold hardship on its people. these wars were quite devastating and gravely debased human dignity and beyond those brutally murdered; others live with the scars of these wars. The Sierra Leone experience is very green in our memories, the beauty of the country, the war and its consequences. Good Morning, Africa further elucidates the general African inclination with a cursory look at political events in Nigeria and its socioeconomic consequences on the country and its people. The Bakassi Peninsula experience was expressed. Good Morning, Africa is a must read for every vibrant and adventurous mind. It is an expression of Africa by an African in pursuit of an African dream italicized in poetry. Similarly, a peep into the various wars within the West African region in which we participated under ECOMOG brings home the feelings of African upset. These are aptly captured poetically in the wake-up call on Africa.

Book Synopsis Sweden and National Liberation in Southern Africa: Formation of a popular opinion (1950-1970) by : Tor Sellström
Download or read book Sweden and National Liberation in Southern Africa: Formation of a popular opinion (1950-1970) written by Tor Sellström and published by Nordic Africa Institute. This book was released on 1999 with total page 552 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1969, the Swedish parliament endorsed a policy of direct assistance to the liberation movements in Southern Africa. Sweden thus became the first Western country to enter into a relationship with organizations that elsewhere in the West were shunned as "Communist" or "terrorist." This book-the first in a two-volume study on Sweden & the regional struggles for majority rule & national independence-traces the background to the relationship. Presenting the actors & factors behind the support to MPLA of Angola, FRELIMO of Mozambique, SWAPO of Namibia, ZANU & ZAPU of Zimbabwe, & ANC of South Africa, it addresses the question why Sweden established close relations with the very movements that eventually would assume state power in their respective countries. The second volume (later this year) will discuss how the support was expressed, covering the period from 1970 until the democratic elections in South Africa in 1994.

Book Synopsis The Spirit of the Game by : Mihir Bose
Download or read book The Spirit of the Game written by Mihir Bose and published by Constable. This book was released on 2012-01-19 with total page 529 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The spirit of the game was first nurtured on the playing fields of the English public school, and in the pages of Tom Brown's Schooldays- this Corinthian spirit was then exported around the world. The competitive spirit, the importance of fairness, the nobility of the gifted amateur seemed to sum up everything that was good about Britishness and the games they played. Today, sport is dominated by corruption, money, celebrity and players who are willing to dive in the box if it wins them a penalty. Yet, we still believe and talk about the game as if it had a higher moral purpose. Since the age of Thomas Arnold, Sport has been used to glorify dictatorships and was at the heart of cold war diplomacy. Prime Ministers, princes and presidents will do whatever they can to ensure that their country holds a major sporting tournament. Nelson Mandela saw the victory of the Rugby World Cup as essential to his hopes for the Rainbow Nation. Mihir Bose has lived his life around sport and in this book he tells the story of how Sport has lost its original spirit and how it has emerged in the 20th century to become the most powerful political tool in the world. With examples and stories from around the world including how the sport-hating Thomas Arnold become an icon; how a German manufacturer gave Jessie Owens a pair of shoes at the Berlin games of 1936 and went on to dominate the world of sport; how India stole cricket from the ICC; how an Essex car dealer become the most powerful man in Formula 1; and who really sold football out. Praise for Mihir Bose: 'Mihir Bose is India's CLR James.' Simon Barnes, The Times. 'Mihir's insider knowledge is unsurpassed' David Welch. 'His Olympic contacts are second to none. He knows everybody.' Sue Mott.
Book Synopsis In Different Times by : Albert Grundlingh
Download or read book In Different Times written by Albert Grundlingh and published by AFRICAN SUN MeDIA. This book was released on 2019-11-18 with total page 364 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the first attempt to bring together diverse scholars, using different lenses, to study South Africa’s Border War. As a book, it is critical in approach, provides deeper reflection, and focuses specifically on the SADF experience of the war. The result is a more complex picture of the war’s dynamics and its legacies. Although South Africa is a vastly different country today, the study of the Border War opens a range of questions, also relevant to contemporary deployments such as in Lesotho (1998) and the Central African Republic (2013). It includes the debate on participation in foreign conflicts; on the deployment, design and preparation of appropriate, modern armed forces and their use as foreign policy instruments in far‑off theatres; on military planning; and, as the historical controversies regarding the battles at Cuito Cuanavale and Bangui illustrate, on the interface between foreign campaigning and domestic politics.
