Remains of the Social is an interdisciplinary volume of essays that
engages with what 'the social' might mean after apartheid; a
condition referred to as 'the post-apartheid social'. The volume
grapples with apartheid as a global phenomenon that extends beyond
the borders of South Africa between 1948 and 1994 and foregrounds
the tension between the weight of lived experience that was and is
apartheid, the structures that condition that experience and a
desire for a 'post-apartheid social' (think unity through
difference). Collectively, the contributors argue for a recognition
of the 'the post-apartheid' as a condition that names the labour of
coming to terms with the ordering principles that apartheid both
set in place and foreclosed. The volume seeks to provide a sense of
the terrain on which 'the post-apartheid' - as a desire for a
difference that is not apartheid's difference - unfolds, falters
and is worked through.
