An original and exciting work of comparative history, this book
analyses the origins of segregation as a specific stage in the
evolution of white supremacy in South Africa and the American
South. Unlike scholars who have attributed twentieth-century
patterns of race relations to the continuation of earlier social
norms and attitudes, Cell understands segregation as a distinct
system and ideology of race and class division, closely associated
with urbanisation, industrialisation, and modern processes of state
and party formation. Originally advocated by moderates and
liberals, rather than by racist fanatic with whom it later came to
be identified, segregation became comparatively sophisticated,
flexible, and absorptive. In its ambiguities even advocates of
black power could sometimes find a basis for collaboration.
