  • History Making and Present Day Politics the Meaning of Collective Memory in South Africa 376 Pp, 978-91-7106-581-0 SEK 320, US$ 39.95
    HANS ERIK STOLTEN (ED.) History Making and Present Day Politics The meaning of collective memory in South Africa 376 pp, 978-91-7106-581-0 SEK 320, US$ 39.95 Although popular use of history helped remove apartheid, the study of history lost status during the transition process. Some of the reasons for this, like the nature of the negotiated revolution, social demobilisation, and individualisation, are analysed in this book. The combination of scholarly work with an active role in changing society has been a central concern in South African history writing. This book warns against the danger of history being caught between reconciliation, commercialisation, and political correctness. Some of the articles critically examine the role of historians in ideological debates on gender, African agency, Afrikaner anti-communism, early South African socialism, and the role of the business world during late apartheid. Other contributions explore continuing controversies on the politics of public his- tory in post-apartheid South Africa, describe the implementation of new policies for history education, or investigate the use of applied history in the land restitution process and in the TRC. The authors also examine a range of new government and private initiatives in the practical use of history, including the establishment of new historical entertainment parks and the conversion of museums and heritage sites. For readers interested in nation building processes and identity politics, this book provides valuable insight. In this collection, some of South Africa’s most distinguished historians and social scientists present their views on the importance of history and heritage for the transformation of the South African soci- ety.

  • Education and Development in Colonial and Postcolonial Africa Policies, Paradigms, and Entanglements, 1890S–1980S
    GLOBAL HISTORIES OF EDUCATION Education and Development in Colonial and Postcolonial Africa Policies, Paradigms, and Entanglements, 1890s–1980s Edited by Damiano Matasci Miguel Bandeira Jerónimo Hugo Gonçalves Dores Global Histories of Education Series Editors Diana Vidal University of São Paulo, São Paulo, Brazil Tim Allender University of Sydney, NSW, Australia Eckhardt Fuchs Georg Eckert Institute for International Textbook Research Braunschweig, Germany Noah W. Sobe Loyola University Chicago Chicago, IL, USA We are very pleased to announce the ISCHE Global Histories of Education book series. The International Standing Conference for the History of Education has organized conferences in the feld since 1978. Thanks to our collaboration with Palgrave Macmillan we now offer an edited book series for the publication of innovative scholarship in the his- tory of education. This series seeks to engage with historical scholarship that analyzes edu- cation within a global, world, or transnational perspective. Specifcally, it seeks to examine the role of educational institutions, actors, technolo- gies as well as pedagogical ideas that for centuries have crossed regional and national boundaries. Topics for publication may include the study of educational networks and practices that connect national and colonial domains, or those that range in time from the age of Empire to decol- onization. These networks could concern the international movement of educational policies, curricula, pedagogies, or universities within and across different socio-political settings. The ‘actors’ under examination might include individuals and groups of people, but also educational appa- ratuses such as textbooks, built-environments, and bureaucratic paper- work situated within a global perspective. Books in the series may be single authored or edited volumes.
