The Emphasis Given to the History of the South African Liberation Struggle in the Nation’S Universities
UCLA Ufahamu: A Journal of African Studies Title The Emphasis to the History of the South African Liberation Struggle in the Nation’s Universities Permalink https://escholarship.org/uc/item/7m469807 Journal Ufahamu: A Journal of African Studies, 40(2) ISSN 0041-5715 Authors Houston, Gregory F. Twala, Chitja Majozi, Nkululeko Publication Date 2018 DOI 10.5070/F7402040943 Peer reviewed eScholarship.org Powered by the California Digital Library University of California Houston, Twala and Majozi The Emphasis Given to the History of the South African Liberation Struggle in the Nation’s Universities Gregory F. Houston, Chitja Twala and Nkululeko Majozi Abstract This article analyses the emphasis given to the teaching of the South African liberation struggle history at the country’s universi- ties. Although this history has been analysed in books, chapters, journal articles, conference papers, theses and dissertations by South African scholars working in various disciplines, it is gener- ally underrepresented in the curricula of the country’s universities. This absence stems, at least in part, from the racial segregation that divided South African universities until the end of Apartheid in 1994. Today, the overwhelming majority of lecturers devote, on average, six or fewer of their annual class sessions to the subject, when most university modules run from seven to fourteen weeks. Despite the limited time given to topics on South African liberation struggle history, a majority of academics surveyed in history and political science departments believe that their institution’s under- graduate curriculum deals sufficiently with the history. Thus, aside from some notable exceptions, South African departments of his- tory and political science have failed to integrate this field within the broader study of national history.
