  • Transforming the Springboks: Re-Imagining the South African Nation Through Sport
    This paper is a post-print of an article published in Social Dynamics 29:1 (2003): 27-48. The definitive version is available at: http://www.africanstudies.uct.ac.za/downloads/29_1farquharson.zip Transforming the Springboks: Re-imagining the South African Nation through Sport 1 Karen Farquharson and Timothy Marjoribanks Abstract Nation-building occurs not only through the creation of formal institutions, but also through struggles in cultural and symbolic contexts. In apartheid South Africa, the rugby union Springboks both symbolised and institutionalised a racially based form of ‘bounded citizenship’. In post-apartheid South Africa, the Springboks have emerged as a contested and significant site in the attempt to build a non-racial nation through reconciliation. To explore these contests, we undertook a qualitative thematic analysis of newspaper discourses around the Springboks, reconciliation and nation-building in the contexts of the 1995 and 1999 Rugby World Cups. Our research suggests, first, that the Springboks have been re-imagined in newspaper discourses as a symbol of the non-racial nation-building process in South Africa, especially in ‘media events’ such as the World Cup. Second, we find that there are significant limitations in translating this symbolism into institutionalised practice, as exemplified by newspaper debates over the place of ‘merit’ in international team selection processes. We conclude that the media framing of the role of the Springboks in nation-building indicates that unless the re-imagination of the Springboks is accompanied by a transformation in who is selected to represent the team, and symbolically the nation, the Springboks’ contribution to South African nation-building will be over.

    Michael Burrows WHERE the LINE BREAKS where the line breaks_title pages.indd 2 7/10/20 1:10 pm Always the same dream. He’s still on the rock. The sun rising behind the wall of khaki-clad men who advance past him. The countless boots. The endless rifl es held at the same exact angle, tips of the bayonets rolling forward in a wave that extends as far as he can see, until they rise out of the trench, and another line takes their place. Scowling as they peer back at him. Actively running from him, distancing themselves from him as they jump up on the fi re step and clamber up the ladders, climbing up the sandbags, the cli wall, the wooden supports, their heads turned back to him with disgust in their eyes, pitying him, watching him blow his childish whistle before they step up and out into the unknown. And as the fi rst wave vanishes, the next line turns, and the same faces peer back at him, judging him, shaking their heads. And the next line. Shaking their heads. And the next. Each line turns and he sees the faces of the friends he signed up with, the boys he trained beside, the men he joked and drank and swore and dreamed with: Brennan, Stokes, Collopy, Richardson, Morrow, even Tom and Robbie. Sometimes Red. And sometimes Nugget. As they fade, the noise starts, seamlessly merging with the tick of his watch. No change in tempo, no increase in speed. The steady tak tak tak of the machine gun; the relentless, ruthless, repetitive, jarring tak tak tak of mechanical bursts that ring in his head when he lies down to sleep.

They link the analysis of tourism and sport to wider public policy and economic development debates, applying economic analytical techniques to sport and leisure in a novel manner and charting the development of new tools which enhance our understanding of the economic contribution of these important activities. A number of the papers contained here focus on the extent to which sporting and leisure activity can further regional and national governments' aspirations for economic development, and at what cost. Two of the papers refine economic impact methodologies to better account for the impacts of discrete sporting and cultural events or facilities, using a high level of primary input data, and placing of the results firmly within the local economic development context.
