South Africa after Apartheid
Policies and Challenges of the Democratic Transition
Series:
As South Africa has entered the third decade after the end of apartheid, this book aims at taking stock of the post-apartheid dynamics in the, so far, often less-comprehensively analysed, but crucial fields of APRM-relevant politics, social development, land and regional relations. In the first part of the book an analysis of some structuring domestic features of post-apartheid South Africa is provided, with a focus on political processes and debates around gender, HIV/AIDS and religion. The second part of the volume focuses on the land question and part three is looking at South Africa’s role in the Southern African region.

'Die behandelten und sinnvoll ausgewählten Schwerpunkte des Buches illustrieren, wie erkenntnisreich internationaler Forschungs dialog sein kann und worauf zukünftiger Wissenschaftsaustausch aufbauen könnte. Der Sammelband motiviert aber auch die Leser/-innen zu kritischen Reflexionen über die vielschichtigen Entwicklungen in Südafrika nach dem Ende der Apartheid.' - Rita Schäfer, in: Peripherie 146/147, 37.
