From protest to challenge is a multi-volume chronicle of the
struggle to achieve democracy and end racial discrimination in
South Africa. Beginning in 1882 during the heyday of European
imperialism, these volumes document the history of race conflict,
protest, and political mobilisation by South Africa’s black
majority. Completely revised and updated, with the inclusion of
photographs and with the previous volumes re-formatted to unify the
series, this second edition of From protest to challenge revives
the classic work of Thomas Karis and Gwendolen Carter and provides
an indispensable resource for students and scholars of African
history, race and ethnicity, identity politics, democratic
transitions and conflict resolution. The authors gratefully
acknowledge the assistance and generosity of all those who helped
to make this book possible. During two extended periods of
pioneering field research by Gwendolen Carter, Thomas Karis, and
Sheridan Johns in South Africa in 1963 and 1964 – a period of
growing political tension – dozens of South Africans gave them
documents or loaned them material to photocopy, often in the hope
of preventing irreplaceable records from falling into the hands of
the police. In addition, lawyers for the defendants in the 1956–61
treason trial contributed a complete set of the trial transcript
and the preliminary examination, as well as a set of virtually all
the documents assembled by the defence in preparation for the
trial. Added to the materials that the team was able to photocopy
from archival collections at several South African universities and
at the South African institute of race relations, these months of
fieldwork provided the initial foundation for what was to become
the first four volumes of From protest to challenge.
