Book Synopsis Papers on the Political Situation in South Africa, 1885-1895 by : Charles Leonard (of Johannesburg.)
Download or read book Papers on the Political Situation in South Africa, 1885-1895 written by Charles Leonard (of Johannesburg.) and published by . This book was released on 1903 with total page 498 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The papers which make up this book, were written at different times and were of the class that disappears entirely unless some care is taken to preserve them. The author also managed to retrieve the pamphlet entitled 'England in South Africa' which was viewed as lost until discovered accidentally that a lady in Scotland, Mrs Taylor, had preserved a copy, which was then lended to the author. That pamphlet, written from the standpoint of the loyal Cape Colonists is worth preserving as it shows that so far back as 1885, Dutch National aspirations had taken such definite form as to lead to the formation of an English political association - the Empire League - for the maintenance of the English tie. The other papers, too, will be of use to the student of the future. Even the newspaper reports of meetings of the Transvaal National Union, containing as they do, though in crude form, records of the resolutions passed by that body of Uitlanders and of the speeches of its leaders, which must reveal to future writers much that is important and relevant. The terms of the great Petition which was signed by 38, 500 people and contemptuously disregarded by the Volksraad, will forever give the lie to the statement, on the Boer side, that the Uitlanders formulated their 'demands' in such insolent terms as to preclude all possibility of their being granted. The extracts from the address of the Republican Chief Justice, the solemn warnings in the paper written by Mr. J.W. Wessels (now a judge on the Transvaal Bench), and the able analysis of the Republican Constitution by Advocate Auret, printed originally as appendices to my statement for the House of Commons Committee, should be of great value to students of South African history.
Book Synopsis The Boer War by : Fred R. van Hartesveldt
Download or read book The Boer War written by Fred R. van Hartesveldt and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2000-05-30 with total page 269 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One hundred years after the Boer War, the British continue to debate what went wrong, while the war has significant nationalist overtones in today's South Africa. This book examines changes in interpretations of the war and provides a bibliography of major sources on the Boer War, now sometimes called the South African War. The bibliography focuses on the military history, but also includes some historical accounts of the political debate. The first part of the book provides an extended historiographical essay, while part two provides an annotated bibliography of the titles discussed in part one. Historiographical questions concerning the Boer War are numerous. Discussions of military operations focus on the early use of modern weaponry and the effect of guerrilla tactics on a traditional force, while other historians debate the question of British military leadership and organization. Questions also revolve around British imperialism and the scramble for Africa. Frequently called the second war for freedom by South African authors, the war was the reason that South Africa, unlike other British colonies, gained independence without majority rule. This makes the war of continuing relevance to the turmoil in South Africa, the collapse of the minority government, and the continuing problems of the current government. This book will provide a useful tool for those wishing to research the war.

Book Synopsis Historical Dictionary of Greater Johannesburg by : Naomi Musiker
Download or read book Historical Dictionary of Greater Johannesburg written by Naomi Musiker and published by . This book was released on 1999 with total page 550 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In just over a century of existence, Johannesburg, the "City of Gold," has played a vital role in the development of South Africa. Today, it is the center of Gauteng, the province which serves as the economic heart of the entire region. The city continues to exert influence over the whole of the African sub-continent. Johannesburg's evolution in the last two decades provide important insights into the transformation of South Africa as a whole. The Dictionary is of great value to readers who wish to understand events that shaped South Africa in the successive eras of gold discovery, British colonization, Nationalist Party apartheid legislation, and transformation under the aegis of the African National Congress. The Musikers make an important departure from previous historical surveys in that they include information on the role of the original indigenous inhabitants of South Africa who occupied the area of the future city long before the first white settlers, and who, through their intensive labor on the gold mines, played a decisive role in the progress of Johannesburg. The present volume, besides covering the economic and political history of Johannesburg, also deals with cultural aspects of the city including architecture, art, music, and theatre, which provide a fascinating multi-cultural portrait of the cosmopolitan city.

Book excerpt: "[The book] skilfully meshes together the written history of the city and its build environment with that which is less certain, less defined: the invisible and visible seams and ridges that hold the city together. ... We are presented with an array of books, documents, fictional accounts, personal memories, photographs (both original and archival), newspapers, pamphlets, obscure city council publications, surveys, plans, court proceedings and architectural objects. Using these materials, Kreutsfeldt and Malcomess ... take us on a visual and textual journey through the arrangements and specificities of Johannesburg over time and trace the cointours of the places and no-places that constitute the city as both concrete and imaginary."--Back cover.

Book Synopsis Precedent in English Law by : Rupert Cross
Download or read book Precedent in English Law written by Rupert Cross and published by Clarendon Press. This book was released on 1991-06-13 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This fourth edition of Precedent in English Law presents a basic guide to the current doctrine of precedent in England, set in the wider context of the jurisprudential problems which any treatment of this topic involves. Such problems include the nature of _ratio_ _decidendi_ of a precedent and of its binding force, the significance of precedents alongside other sources of law, their role in legal reasoning, and the account which must be taken of them by any general theory of law. Considerable re-writing has been undertaken to update case-law and take account of the possible implications for the doctrine of precedent of the impact of European Community law, making it an indispensable work of reference for readers interested in the past history, present state, and future developments of English rules of precedent.

Download or read book Critical Issues in Taxation and Development written by Clemens Fuest and published by MIT Press. This book was released on 2013 with total page 253 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The contributions in this book analyse the policy challenges of taxation in developing countries, including corruption, tax evasion, and ineffective political structures. After a comprehensive overview, each chapter uses modern empirical methods to study a single critical issue essential to understanding the effects of taxes on development. Topics addressed include the effect of taxation on foreign direct investment; forms of corruption, tax evasion, and tax avoidance that are specific to developing countries; and issues related to political structure, including the negative effects of fiscal decentralization on the effectiveness of developmental aid and the relationship between democracy and taxation in Asian, Latin American, and European Union countries that have recently experienced both political and economic transitions.
