Much has been written about anti-apartheid resistance by the
marginalized people of South Africa, as well as its violent
repression by security forces in urban areas (e.g. Sharpeville
massacre; Soweto riots). Very little attention has been paid to
resistance by rural people. The Mpondo Revolts, which began in the
1950s and reached a climax in 1960, rank among the most significant
rural resistances in South Africa. Here Mpondo villagers
emphatically rejected the introduction of Bantu Authorities and
unpopular rural land use planning that meant loss of land. The
volume presents a fresh understanding of the uprising; as well as
its meaning and significance then and now, particularly relating to
land, rural governance, party politics and the agency of the
marginalized.
