Neville Alexander is not a household name, but he should be. As a
revolutionary public intellectual, activist and former political
prisoner, he is among the most important theorists of racial
capitalism to emerge during the struggle against Apartheid.
Alexander's writings engage with some of the important debates in
South Africa from the last 50 years, many of which have
international resonance today: from the unresolved national
question and the relationship between 'race' and class; the
continuities of racial capitalism in post-apartheid South Africa;
the role and purpose of schooling and higher education; and the
importance of nation building and multilingualism. An opponent of
the neoliberal trajectory embarked upon by the post-apartheid
establishment in the 1990s, Alexander was always reflective and
humble but never wavered from his own self-description: a
non-dogmatic Marxist, pan-Africanist and internationalist. This
carefully curated collection brings his incredible body of work to
an international audience for the first time. It features a
comprehensive introduction, a timeline of key events in the life of
Alexander, selected articles, speeches, op-eds, book chapters and a
bibliography of his writings.
This title was first published in 2002: Has the South African
post-apartheid state been able to achieve its stated goals? What
has been the relationship between the process of educational reform
and the impact on the state of the Constitution and other laws?
This seminal book responds to these questions by examining the
development and implementation of social policy in South Africa
during the first years of democratic government, particularly in
relation to education. The post-apartheid state was immediately
faced with a broad spectrum of political, social, economic and
human rights issues. The research analyzes whether the aims and
objectives of the new administration were achieved; no other single
collection of research in South Africa collectively explores the
issues raised in this endeavour. The book will appeal to a wide
range of professionals including researchers, academics, planners,
policy makers, public servants and postgraduate students.
