In many parts of the world, oppositional publishing has emerged in
contexts of state oppression. In South Africa, censorship laws were
enacted in the 1960s, and the next decade saw increased pressure on
freedom of speech and publishing. With growing restrictions on
information, activist publishing emerged. These highly politicised
publishers had a social responsibility, to contribute to social
change. In spite of their cultural, political and social
importance, no academic study of their history has yet been
undertaken. This Element aims to fill that gap by examining the
history of the most vocal and arguably the most radical of this
group, Ravan Press. Using archival material, interviews and the
books themselves, this Element examines what the history of Ravan
reveals about the role of oppositional print culture.
