R950 R858 Discovery Miles 8 580 Save R92 (10%) Ships in 4 - 8 working days

This book has grown out of the experiences of years of teaching introductory courses in law, to both law and non-law students here in Botswana and in other countries. Although it builds on E. K. Quansah’s earlier mimeograph, Introduction to the Botswana legal system, this book is specifically written as a comprehensive textbook that targets law and non-law students as well as anyone concerned with the operation of the law. Structurally, it is divided into five parts. Part I provides a general introduction to the nature and functions of the law as well as a brief outline of the major legal systems that operate in the world today. Part II contains a detailed account on the background to the present legal system in Botswana and then identifies the different sources of law that are applied in the courts in the country. Part III examines the various courts in the country as well as the different categories of legal personnel who are involved in the administration of justice in the country. Part IV deals with the enactment and interpretation of statutes. The final part discusses some of the crucial issues that have troubled students when tackling law examinations and also examines some of the key issues in writing a good legal essay and legal research paper.

R1,000 Discovery Miles 10 000 Ships in 12 - 17 working days

The extensively revised second edition of Issues in Cultural Tourism Studies provides a new framework for analyzing the complexity of cultural tourism and its increasing globalization in existing as well as emergent destinations of the world. The book will focus in particular on the need for even more creative tourism strategies to differentiate destinations from each other using a blend of localized cultural products and innovative global attractions.

The book explores many of the most pertinent issues in heritage, arts, festivals, indigenous, ethnic and experiential cultural tourism in urban and rural environments alike. This includes policy and politics; impact management and sustainable development; interpretation and representation; marketing and branding; and regeneration and planning. As well as exploring the inter-relationships between the cultural and tourism sectors, local people and tourists, the book provides suggestions for more effective and mutually beneficial collaboration. New edition features include:

  • an increased number of topical case studies and contemporary photographs which serve to contextualize the issues discussed
  • a re-orientation towards global rather than just European issues
  • three brand new chapters on The Geography of Cultural Tourism, The Politics of Global Cultural Tourism, and The Growth of Creative Tourism
  • an extensively revised chapter on Experiential Tourism.

At the interface between the global and the local, a people-centred approach to planning and development is advocated to ensure that benefits are maximized for local areas, a sense of place and identity are retained, and the tourist experience is enhanced to the full. The text is unique in that it provides a summary and a synthesis of all of the major issues in global cultural tourism, which are presented in an accessible way using a diverse range of international case studies. This is a beneficial and valuable resource for all tourism students.

English In Perspective (Paperback): Glenda Heinemann, Felicity Horne English In Perspective (Paperback)

R634 R586 Discovery Miles 5 860 Save R48 (8%) Ships in 6 - 10 working days

What is the real status of English in the world, and in South Africa in particular? South Africa has eleven official languages, and purports to uphold equal rights for all. However, English continues to wield immense official and unofficial power.

Many English second- or additional-language speakers in South Africa are sacrificing or 'diluting' their primary languages and cultures in the quest to take up and use the power of a world language.

English In Perspective uses a wealth of local texts to explore how English is spoken and written. It questions the dominance of English and wrestles with some of the complexities arising from language use and change in a multilingual society.

In a systematic and analytical approach to the study of South African English discourse, English In Perspective:

  • introduces the theory and practice of English through the exclusive use of South African texts, thus providing only relevant learning and teaching material
  • provides a series of practical and imaginative examples and exercises that bring theory to life, and help familiarize students with new language concepts
  • provides a participatory glossary, and a suggested set of answers to activities, so that students may mark their own work, and consolidate and revise the text
  • heightens awareness of different types of discourse, and develops sensitivity towards the varieties of language required in specific situations
  • develops reading, writing, listening, and speaking skills, and
  • increases tolerance and respect for linguistic diversity, and develops the recognition of the equality of all languages, and the rights of all language speakers.
English In Perspective contributes significantly towards developing the language skills of English speakers and students of English in South Africa. In particular, it is vital for both new and current educators, who will find that OBE principles underpin this exploration of English usage.

A masterly story of myth, rebellion, love, friendship and betrayal from one of Africa's great writers, Ngugi wa Thiong'o's A Grain of Wheat includes an introduction by Abdulrazak Gurnah, author of By the Sea, in Penguin Modern Classics. It is 1963 and Kenya is on the verge of Uhuru - Independence Day. The mighty british government has been toppled, and in the lull between the fighting and the new world, colonized and colonizer alike reflect on what they have gained and lost. In the village of Thabai, the men and women who live there have been transformed irrevocably by the uprising. Kihika, legendary rebel leader, was fatally betrayed to the whiteman. Gikonyo's marriage to the beautiful Mumbi was destroyed when he was imprisoned, while her life has been shattered in other ways. And Mugo, brave survivor of the camps and now a village hero, harbours a terrible secret. As events unfold, compromises are forced, friendships are betrayed and loves are tested. Kenyan novelist and playwright Ngugi wa Thiong'o is the author of Weep Not Child (1964), The River Between (1965), and Petals of Blood (1977). Ngugi was chair of the Department of Literature at the University of Nairobi from 1972 to 1977. He left Kenya in 1982 and taught at various universities in the United States before he became professor of comparative literature and performance studies at New York University in 1992. If you enjoyed A Grain of Wheat, you might like Chinua Achebe's Things Fall Apart, also available in Penguin Modern Classics.

Decolonising The Neoliberal University - Law, Psychoanalysis And The Politics Of Student Protest (Paperback): Jaco Barnard-Naude Decolonising The Neoliberal University - Law, Psychoanalysis And The Politics Of Student Protest (Paperback)
Jaco Barnard-Naude
R420 R397 Discovery Miles 3 970 Save R23 (5%) Ships in 5 - 10 working days

Taking the postcolonial – or, more specifically, the post-apartheid – university as its focus, the book takes the violence and the trauma of the global neoliberal hegemony as its central point of reference.

Following a primarily psychoanalytic line of enquiry, it engages a range of disciplines – law, philosophy, literature, gender studies, cultural studies and political economy – in order better to understand the conditions of possibility of an emancipatory, or decolonised, higher education. And this in the context of both the inter-generational transmission of the trauma of colonialism, on the one hand, and, on the other, the trauma of neoliberal subjectivity in the postcolonial university. Oriented around an important lecture by Jacqueline Rose, the volume contains contributions from world-renowned authors, such as Judith Butler and Achille Mbembe, as well as numerous legal and other theorists who share their concern with interrogating the contemporary crisis in higher education.

This truly interdisciplinary collection will appeal to a wide range of readers right across the humanities, but especially those with substantial interests in the contemporary state of the university, as well as those with theoretical interests in postcolonialism, psychoanalysis, gender studies, cultural studies, jurisprudence and law.
