El objetivo de este libro es estudiar el largo periodo histórico de gestación y desarrollo de los fundamentos estructurales de la nación sudafricana contemporánea: es un estudio introductorio para la historia política de Sudáfrica en el siglo XX, la cual será abordada en un libro de próxima publicación. La tesis central que guía el presente trabajo plantea que desde la historia antigua y hasta finales del siglo XIX surgieron los procesos fundacionales de la compleja economía política de Sudáfica en el siglo XX. Este estudio comienza con el tema generalmente más ignorado de la historia sudafricana: su nacimiento como un país de pueblos de piel negra, paralelo al surgimiento de las raíces que definen las identidades culturales de los principales grupos étnicos contemporáneos. Concluye con uno de los periodos más dramáticos de su historia: la guerra de 1899-1902 -conocida como guerra anglo-afrikáner- que entre otros aspectos posibilitó la formación de una alianza estratégica entre los dos grupos poblacionales blancos, estimuló la expansión del capitalismo y el surgimiento de nuevas clases sociales, procesos que permitieron la posterior institucionalización de las prácticas cotidianas de explotación, basadas en el color de la piel, que a partir de 1948 sería conocida con el término de "apartheid".

This book is a collection of chapters based on original research dealing with issues of discipline and disciplinary practices in educational institutions. The aim of the book is to provide a scholarly and scientific perspective on the current state of discipline and disciplinary practices in schools and tertiary education settings. The issue of discipline is investigated from diverse paradigmatic and methodological perspectives, presenting empirical as well as also philosophical research. The empirical perspective includes quantitative (positivistic), qualitative (interpretive) and mixed methods (pragmatic), designs and worldviews. This book offers a ground-breaking contribution to the field of learner and student discipline, with insights into disciplinary practices and issues in educational institutions not hitherto researched, such as Technical Vocational Education and Training colleges and universities.

In the early nineteenth century, the linguistic situation of the Eastern Cape was changing among the Cape Khoesan. Their indigenous language, Cape Khoekhoe, was swiftly being replaced by Dutch or Proto-Afrikaans. The Cape Khoesan articulated their continuous critique of the oppressions of European colonialism through petitions, speeches at meetings and letters to the newspapers. Communication with British officialdom, and in general, was mostly in English or translated into English by the administration.These translations are published in the anthology selected and compiled by Robert Ross, These Oppressions Wonâ t Cease (Wits University Press, 2017). In this supplementary edition, the author has made a compilation of the Dutch texts on which those documents are based. It is a supplement that presents the few original Dutch speeches and letters that survived, thereby giving readers and scholars access to the â raw dataâ . Most importantly, the supplement provides a unique record of the Khoesanâ s resistance, in their own voices, to European settler colonialism.
