Book Synopsis Resistance to and Acquiescence in Apartheid by : Henry Mbaya
Download or read book Resistance to and Acquiescence in Apartheid written by Henry Mbaya and published by AFRICAN SUN MeDIA. This book was released on 2018-09-12 with total page 262 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book documents the history of a major Provincial Anglican theological college in Grahamstown - St. Paul's Theological College - that existed against the backdrop of colonialism and apartheid. The author fundamentally attempts to explore a narrative of certain socio-economic, cultural and political struggles. He contextualises the mission of the Church in theological education during a period of deeply rooted inequality. Thus, one is left to ask the question: What missionary role did St. Paul's College play in the context of apartheid?
Book Synopsis Acquiescence and Resistance in the Fiction of Nadine Gordimer by : Noor Hussain
Download or read book Acquiescence and Resistance in the Fiction of Nadine Gordimer written by Noor Hussain and published by Notion Press. This book was released on 2024-08 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book examines the theme of acquiescence and resistance in Nadine Gordimer's fiction of the apartheid era in South Africa. The Afrikaner National Party came to power in South Africa in 1948. Since then successive white minority governments of South Africa had enacted and implemented apartheid laws to dominate and rule the majority black population. Many white liberals fought against the apartheid regime. Nadine Gordimer is one such white author and activist who has been a bitter critic of apartheid throughout her life. As an artist who is deeply committed to society, she has created a body of fiction that displays a culture of resistance to the dehumanizing apartheid laws. Gordimer has not only highlighted the issue of apartheid but she has expressed her voice of dissent through her work -both fictional and non-fictional. This study argues that Gordimer has provided through her work an alternative discourse to resist apartheid.

Book Synopsis Refusal, Transition and Post-apartheid Law by : Karin Van Marle
Download or read book Refusal, Transition and Post-apartheid Law written by Karin Van Marle and published by AFRICAN SUN MeDIA. This book was released on 2009-11-01 with total page 167 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Refusal, Transition and Post-apartheid Law under editorship of professor Karin van Marle is indeed long overdue. As some of the authors in the relevant contributions to this publication rightly point out, Van Marle?s call for a ?jurisprudence of generosity?, enabled through an ?ethics of refusal?, signals a new shift in South African jurisprudence. Through the lens of Van Marle?s ethics of refusal and her jurisprudence of generosity, the articles present fresh and meaningful interpretations in respect of a range of very relevant topics ranging from property theory and a rethinking of human rights, to the role of forgiveness and the dangers inherent in modern technology.
Book Synopsis Decolonization and White Africans by : P. Eric Louw
Download or read book Decolonization and White Africans written by P. Eric Louw and published by . This book was released on 2022-02-22 with total page 326 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Decolonization and White Africans examines how African decolonization affected white Africans in eight countries - Algeria, Kenya, Northern Rhodesia (Zambia), Southern Rhodesia (Zimbabwe), Angola, Mozambique, South West Africa (Namibia), and South Africa - and discusses their varied responses to decolonization, including resistance, acquiescence, negotiations, and migration. It also examines the range of mechanisms used by the global community to compel white Africans into submitting to decolonization through such means as official pressure, diplomatic negotiations, global activism, sanctions, and warfare. Until now, books about African decolonization usually approached the topic either from the perspective of the colonial powers or from an anti-colonial black African perspective. As a result, white African perspectives have been marginalized, downplayed, or presented reductively. Decolonization and White Africans adds white African perspectives to the story, thereby broadening our understanding of the decolonization phenomenon.

Book Synopsis Interconnectivity, Subversion, and Healing in World Christianity by : Afe Adogame
Download or read book Interconnectivity, Subversion, and Healing in World Christianity written by Afe Adogame and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2023-07-13 with total page 227 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The rise of Christianity around the world has been the impetus for much religious and social change. The interconnectivity of religious centers has resulted in theological dialogue and innovation. The subversion of long-held categories of culture, gender, race, spirituality, theology, and politics has naturally occurred along with the transgressing of borders and boundaries. Yet at the same time, there has been occasion for healing through intercultural experiences of forgiveness, peacemaking, and reconciliation. Stimulated by the work and mentorship of Joel Carpenter, who has done much to expand the study of world Christianity less through focusing on his own research and writing, and more through amplifying the voices of others, the international contributors to this volume from all six continents promote a deeper understanding of World Christianity through the exploration of such related themes. Whether discussing primal spirituality in northeast India, white supremacy in South Africa, evangelical women and civic engagement in Kenya, or Calvinism in Mexico, the contributors draw upon ethnographic case studies to more deeply understand interconnectivity, subversion, and healing in World Christianity. Their essays provoke a reorientation of Christian thought within the study of World Christianity, enriching the current discourse and promoting vistas for further interdisciplinary studies.

Book Synopsis Flashpoint by : Derek Charles Catsam
Download or read book Flashpoint written by Derek Charles Catsam and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2021-08-28 with total page 255 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Forty years ago, a South African rugby tour in the United States became a crucial turning point for the nation’s burgeoning protests against apartheid and a test of American foreign policy. In Flashpoint: How a Little-Known Sporting Event Fueled America's Anti-Apartheid Movement, Derek Charles Catsam tells the fascinating story of the Springbok’s 1981 US tour and its impact on the country’s anti-apartheid struggle. The US lagged well behind the rest of the Western world when it came to addressing the vexing question of South Africa’s racial policies, but the rugby tour changed all that. Those who had been a part of the country’s tiny anti-apartheid struggle for decades used the visit from one of white South Africa’s most cherished institutions to mobilize against both apartheid sport and the South African regime more broadly. Protestors met the South African team at airports, chanted outside their hotels, and courted arrests at matches, which ranged from the bizarre to the laughable, with organizers going to incredible lengths to keep their locations secret. In telling the story of how a sport little appreciated in the United States nonetheless became ground zero for the nation’s growing anti-apartheid movement, Flashpoint serves as a poignant reminder that sports and politics have always been closely intertwined.

Book Synopsis The Law and the Prophets by : Daniel R. Magaziner
Download or read book The Law and the Prophets written by Daniel R. Magaziner and published by Ohio University Press. This book was released on 2010-09-07 with total page 299 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The 1970s are a decade virtually lost to South African historiography. This span of years bridged the banning and exile of the country’s best-known antiapartheid leaders in the early 1960s and the furious protests that erupted after the Soweto uprisings of June 16, 1976. The Law and the Prophets is an intellectual history of the resistance movement between 1968 and 1977; it follows the formation, early trials, and ultimate dissolution of the Black Consciousness movement. Magaziner argues that only by understanding how ideas about race, faith, and selfhood developed and were transformed in this period might we begin to understand the dramatic changes that took place.
Book Synopsis Struggling for Recognition by : Doron Shultziner
Download or read book Struggling for Recognition written by Doron Shultziner and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2010-11-18 with total page 229 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Struggling for Recognition posits that the drive for personal recognition is a prime motivation behind the pursuit of democracy. The book presents an alternative to the theories of social and political changes that fail to test the causal assumption they make about human psychology. The theory presented underscores a fundamental aspect of human nature: the pursuit of recognition, that is, the drive for positive self-esteem and status and the aversion of negative self-esteem and subordination. This pursuit of recognition becomes the impetus for action and is used to overcome fear as well as rational costs and benefits calculations involved in collective action. The book examines the mechanisms by which this disposition is triggered and converted into political pressures that eventually lead to democratic reforms. Struggling for Recognition will be of interest to a wide range of scholars in political science, including those researching social movements, social change, democracy, and democratic transitions. A unique multidisciplinary work, it will foster better understanding of key political events such as democratic transitions.
