The development of the South African legal system in the early
twentieth century was crucial to the establishment and maintenance
of the systems which underpinned the racist state, including
control of the population, the running of the economy, and the
legitimization of the regime. Martin Chanock's highly illuminating
and definitive perspective on that development examines all areas
of the law: criminal law and criminology; the Roman-Dutch law; the
State's African law; and land, labour and 'rule of law' questions.
His revisionist analysis of the construction of South African legal
culture illustrates the larger processes of legal colonization,
while the consideration of the interaction between imported
doctrine and legislative models with local contexts and approaches
also provides a basis for understanding the re-fashioning of law
under circumstances of post-colonialism and globalization.
