In an ideal world, all children would grow up in a stable, nurturing and healthy home. However, the reality is that globally, many bear the brunt of conflicts, trafficking, poverty, sexual victimisation, broken families, school disruption and harming cultural practices. Socialisation structures to teach children the fundamental moral values of right and wrong are often absent, and children spend too many hours on social media platforms or playing games on smart devices, which affects their physical, emotional and psychological development. It is therefore hardly surprising that the world is seeing an increase in youth offenders. Child and youth misbehaviour in South Africa addresses the complex and poorly understood phenomenon of juvenile misbehaviour and the factors that cause these activities.

Child and youth misbehaviour in South Africa discusses and analyses various presumptions on the nature and causes of aberrant behaviour and assesses them critically with regard to their applicability to South Africa. It presents the relevant legal processes pertaining to young people and reinforces theoretical explanations with research and real-world examples. The female youth offender is also given special attention in this book.

Contents include the following:

• Nature and extent of child and youth misbehaviour in South Africa
• Risk factors pertaining to youth offenders
• Socio-moral redirection of troubled youth
• Adverse childhood experiences and youth misbehaviour
• Traditional and contemporary theoretical explanations for youth misbehaviour
• Prevention and control of youth misbehaviour in South Africa
• Child Justice Act: practice and procedure
• Child trafficking and child prostitution in South Africa

Child and youth misbehaviour in South Africa is aimed at enabling both practitioners and students to address the plight of the South African youth in a constructive way and so become part of creating a safer South Africa for its people.

Today's changed education landscape demands leaders who will provide society with capable South Africans who are able to fulfil their life-roles as citizens and as productive, well-adjusted human beings. An educator's guide to school management skills aims at providing education leaders and managers with practical, school-based directives. This title focuses on four particularly relevant aspects in our schools today: How to develop excellence in schools; leadership and management skills; motivational skills; current school management issues (i.e. effective teaching personnel; management of information and time; school's finances; managing of the instructional programme; community involvement; legal aspects of employment; and gender equity).

The authors emphasize the commonality of the underlying principles, eg the principle of accessoriness, governing all categories of security rights.

The vesting of a real security right does not change the balance of the assets in the debtor’s estate – it merely ring-fences the recoverable value of the identified objects of security in favour of the preferred and secured creditors. With personal security rights, the recovery is extended to include all the assets of someone other than the primary debtor – the surety. International reviewers’ comments on the Afrikaans edition confirm the value of this approach and add:

The research invested in and included in the book is impressive on several levels. The book remarkably combines a dogmatic scientific approach with usefulness of legal practice. With regard to legal practice, I have admired the in-depth manner in which the authors scrutinize the South African case law in all its dimensions and recent developments. Their analysis is developed in the text or, very often also, in the footnotes which contain a treasure of developments. On a scientific level, both the historical and comparative developments … contributes to the existing academic work” Prof Dr Vincent Sagaert – KU Leuven

The book has three main advantages. First it gives an excellent overview of the law on securities in general and the one on South African law in particular. Second, what makes the book a pleasure to read is its emphasis on caselaw. Third, the focus on comparative law makes the book highly interesting to lawyers with a foreign law outlook. The book is also very much up to date” – Prof Dr Ewoud Hondius, University of Utrecht.

Everyone has the right to education. The main objective of any education system in a democratic society is to provide quality education for all learners, including those with physical, mental and socioeconomic challenges, so that they will be able to reach their full potential and contribute meaningfully to society throughout their lives. With the publication of the Education White Paper 6 in 2001, South Africa proclaimed its policy of inclusive education; however, this policy is not always clearly understood by educators. Addressing barriers to learning provides relevant and in-depth knowledge to prepare educators to teach all the learners in their class groups to the best of their ability. Addressing barriers to learning covers the complete continuum of barriers to learning as reflected in Education White Paper 6, including the most vulnerable of them: those who are economically and educationally disadvantaged; those with physical, sensory, intellectual, and/or learning impairment; those who are subjected to xenophobic behaviour and those displaying challenging behaviour who are at risk of exclusion. This latest edition also includes a new section on discrimination and sociocultural injustice towards LGBTQI (lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer, questioning and intersex) learners. Case studies offer practical examples and activities provide opportunities for hands-on experience with classroom practice and management, collaboration with all role players and mobilisation of community involvement, which is at the heart of true inclusion. Addressing barriers to learning is aimed at both prospective and current educators and other support professionals, including psychologists and therapists.

This unique seminal work is the only book which comprehensively addresses current environmental management in South Africa from an interdisciplinary perspective.

The third edition of Fuggle & Rabie’s Environmental Management in South Africa sheds light on the legal frameworks in regional and international environmental law, administrative law and the National Environmental Management Act (NEMA).

Key themes addressed in environmental management, including agriculture and soils, air quality, biodiversity, climate change, energy, the coast, economics, trade and the role of financial institutions (among others), are covered from both scientific and legal perspectives.

Everyone has the right to education. The main objective of any education system in a democratic society is to provide quality education for all learners so that they will be able to reach their full potential and contribute meaningfully to and participate in that society throughout their lives. With the publication of the Education White Paper 6 in 2001, South Africa proclaimed its policy of inclusive education; however this policy is not always clearly understood by educators. Addressing barriers to learning provides relevant and in-depth knowledge to better prepare educators to teach all the learners in their class groups. Addressing barriers to learning covers the complete continuum of learners as reflected in the Education White Paper 6, and includes the most vulnerable of them: those who are economically and educationally disadvantaged, those with physical, sensory, intellectual, and/or learning impairment as well as those displaying challenging behaviour who are at risk of exclusion.

Health organizations in social, medico-social and health sectors are not immune to the pressures of productivity, efficiency and quality. The race against time, which is far more problematic today than 20 years ago, makes care in the workplace much more difficult to implement, though it is essential. The onset of the Covid-19 pandemic in 2020 only reinforced this stance. Caring Management in Heath Organizations questions the benevolent nature of management, understood here to mean taking care, according a central role to relationships. It takes a political, historical and international perspective on health management, examining successful implementations of this practice in health organizations, with all its difficulties, pitfalls and riches. Other sectors are also explored. This book takes a critical look at the very foundations of "caring management". It opens up the debate between researchers from different backgrounds and professionals in the field.

Oorgange en voortgange is 'n bundel oorspronklike navorsingsartikels saamgestel as huldiging van prof. Heinrich Ohlhoff. Hy was sedert 1966 in verskeie hoedanighede verbonde aan die Universiteit van Pretoria. Hy is 'n gerekende kenner van die Afrikaanse poësie, maar ook ewe tuis op die terreine van die Afrikaanse taalkunde, Algemene Literatuurwetenskap, Goties en Kultuurteorie. As filoloog het sy navorsing gekonsentreer op Middeleeuse Europese kultuur, Renaissance studie en sewentiende-eeuse Nederlandse letterkunde. Hy is op al hierdie vakterreine 'n wandelende ensiklopedie.

Elkeen van die bydraers tot die bundel het 'n persoonlike verhouding met Heinrich Ohlhoff, as voormalige studente of vakkollegas. Van sy oudstudente het hom die eerste keer in hul voorgraadse klasse meegemaak, sommige het hom later as begeleier vir hul nagraadse studie gekies, in sigself klinkende getuienis van hul vertroue. Die studies wat hier opgeneem is, handel oor die Middeleeuse Nederlandse letterkunde, die Afrikaanse biografie, Afrikaanse mondelinge oordrag, akademiese geletterdheid, die leksikologie en veral die Afrikaanse prosa en poësie.

Hierdie vakverskeidenheid is toepaslik omdat Heinrich Ohlhoff op al hierdie terreine met gemak kan saampraat.

In today's rapidly changing world, a holistic and integrated approach to educational assessment - and its interdependence with curriculum, teaching and learning - is essential. In the delivery of 21st century knowledge and skills, educators will be challenged with issues such as what to teach, what and how learners need to learn, and how to assess their work accurately to measure richer and more meaningful learning and more complex tasks. Meaningful assessment for 21st century learning seeks to address different learning contexts and disciplines by exploring how education theory, methodologies and approaches influence assessment practices in the 21st century. Meaningful assessment for 21st century learning is aimed at the broader educational community of scholars engaged in meaningful and effective educational assessment to promote 21st century skills.
