These are not very useful terms and especially as they are often used to refer to India, China and South Korea which have been involved in development cooperation for a very long time. These newer actors in development assistance are also sometime called non-DAC donors. This is also a misleading and a rather negative way of defining this very diverse group, as some of these new development assistance partners are new EU member states, others are OECD members but not of its Development Assistance Committee (DAC), others are Gulf States, while others again are members of the group called BRICS (Brazil, Russia, India, China and South Africa). And there are many more. We are not, in this issue, dealing with the very diverse and complex world of private sector aid or aid from foundations; these may be analysed in a future special issue of NORRAG News. Rather, we are looking at the whole range of non-traditional bilateral actors from India to Nigeria; from Brazil to China; and from Turkey to Thailand. There is a very wide range of these non-traditional, newer donors, and several of them are from countries where our NORRAG membership is not large, such as South Korea, Russia and Saudi Arabia. In other cases, such as South Africa, India, China, Chile and Brazil, we have quite large NORRAG memberships. Here are some of issues we are dealing with in analysing these non-traditional donors, or newer development partners: * How different are their approaches and modalities from those of the more traditional DAC donors, always remembering that there are very substantial differences amongst DAC donors? * How tied is the aid offered by these newer donors and how important are the national experts of these countries in aid delivery? * How are these newer donors perceived in the countries they are supporting? * How regionally oriented is this new cooperation, and how much does it cross continents like Brazil’s support to countries in Africa? * What can the older donors learn from these newer development partners? * Are academics and consultants from countries associated with the DAC donors giving advice to any of the newer development partners? * What does the rise of these new donors mean for donor coordination? * Are these newer development partners involved in the countries where NORRAG’s two partners, ERNWACA (in West and Central Africa) and RedEtis (in Latin America), are operating?

  • 1Bee-Ing Chinese in South Africa: a Legal Historic Perspective
    ARTICLES 1BEE-ING CHINESE IN SOUTH AFRICA: A LEGAL HISTORIC PERSPECTIVE Karen L Harris* ABSTRACT This article traces the history and dilemma of the South African born Chinese (SABCs, also known as the indigenous Chinese) in terms of their legal dispensation. Within months of the implementation of the Broad-Based Black Economic Empowerment Act 35 of 2003, it became apparent that the Chinese communities were excluded as beneficiaries of the legislation as well as from the Employment Equity Act 55 of 1998. This situation was in line with the treatment that the Chinese had received since they first arrived in the Cape Colony towards the end of the seventeenth century, and was perpetuated throughout the subsequent centuries to beyond the 1994 new political dispensation. The exclusion of the Chinese from Broad-Based Black Economic Empowerment and Employment Equity and their legal action challenging the Acts, took place against the backdrop of stereotypical representation in popular consciousness and ignorance of a people who have been part of the South African past for three centuries. This article places the South African Chinese legal battle of the twenty-first century within the context of their perpetual invidious position in South Africa’s past. It traces the neglected and checkered legal history of a marginalised minority. * Professor, Head of Department of Historical and Heritage Studies; Director, University of Pretoria Archives; University of Pretoria.

Dissertation Advisor: Professor Caroline Elkins Liang Xu On the Edge of Capitalism: African Local States, Chinese Family Firms, and the Transformation of Industrial Labor ABSTRACT This research, a study of capitalism on the frontier, examines Chinese garment production and African women workers in South Africa from the waning years of apartheid to the present. It focuses on Newcastle, a former border town between white South Africa and the black KwaZulu homeland that had been economically important for its coal and steel production since the 1960s. However, the “Asian Strategy” adopted by the Newcastle Town Council in the early 1980s transformed the town into a prominent site of low-wage, labor-intensive, and female-oriented light manufacturing.

Moving the Edge:The South Africans Who Are Chinese Janet L. Carlson To journey to South Africa is to enter a place of tremendous com- plexity, contradiction, hope, and anxiety. It is a place of incredible change where so much has remained the same. The many layers and interactions of society, culture, and politics (among other aspects) require years, perhaps a lifetime, of investigation. This essay describes the beginnings of a study, conducted over a period three weeks, of one of the smallest ethnic groups in South Africa, the “local” Chinese.1 Evelyn Hu-DeHart, director of the Center for the Study of Race and Ethnicity at the University of Colorado – Boulder was the first to draw my attention to the South African Chinese. In response to my inquiry about Asian communities in Africa, she noted that Chinese are every- where albeit in small numbers.
