What did South African AIDS activists contribute, politically, to early international advocacy for free HIV medicines for the world's poor? Mandisa Mbali demonstrates that South Africa's Treatment Action Campaign (TAC) gave moral legitimacy to the international movement which enabled it to effectively push for new models of global health diplomacy and governance. The TAC rapidly acquired moral credibility, she argues, because of its leaders' anti-apartheid political backgrounds, its successful human rights-based litigation and its effective popularization of AIDS-related science.The country's arresting democratic transition in 1994 enabled South African activists to form transnational alliances. Its new Constitution provided novel opportunities for legal activism, such as the TAC's advocacy against multinational pharmaceutical companies and the South African government. Mbali's history of the TAC sheds light on its evolution into an influential force for global health justice.

South Africa has the world's largest number of people living with HIV. This book offers a history of AIDS activism in South Africa from its origins in gay and anti-apartheid activism to the formation and consolidation of the Treatment Action Campaign (TAC), including its central role in the global HIV treatment access movement.

This volume explores some of the key features of popular politics and resistance before and after 1994. It explores continuities and changes in the forms of struggle and ideologies involved, as well as the significance of post-apartheid grassroots politics. Is this a new form of politics or does it stand as a direct descendent of the insurrectionary impulses of the late apartheid era? The scale of popular protest in the 2000s does not rival that of the 1970s and 1980s, but posing questions about continuity and change before and after 1994, as some of these papers do, in itself raises key issues concerning the nature of power and poverty in the country. Contributors suggest that expressions of popular politics are deeply set within South African political culture and still have the capacity to influence political outcomes. Some chapters address pre-1994 conflicts and movements, some post-1994, and some straddle the two periods. The introduction by William Beinart links the papers together, places them in context of recent literature on popular politics and "history from below," and summarises their main findings, supporting the argument that popular politics outside of the party system remains significant in South Africa and have helped to influence national politics. The roots of this collection lie in post-graduate student research conducted at the University of Oxford in the early twenty-first century.

Starting your own business is often celebrated and highlighted as a success [which it is] but as a society we never address the pitfalls and ‘the dark side’ of entrepreneurship. The small business world is characterised by ruthless ringleaders, hostile trading environments and uncomfortable business dealings. So, what happens when we begin addressing the elephants in the room in the world of entrepreneurship?

Self – Ish: Mastering Self in a Selfish business world addresses pertinent business and life lessons that entrepreneurs never speak about. The book offers a series of social commentary that ranges from the impact of black tax amongst black entrepreneurs, dealing with depression as an entrepreneur, personal branding for your brand as well as dealing with ringleaders in the business world. From chapters ranging from ‘build it, brand it & boast about it’, ‘How to secure the bag [a personal branding perspective], ‘It’s not that deep’ as well as addressing sexual manipulation in the face of business.

The book also contains a business canvas section that contains templates for entrepreneurs that they can use for business purposes.
