- Summary:
- Along with the immense political and social changes that have taken place in South Africa, there has been a renewal of the theoretical frameworks with which to analyze them. The pathbreaking contributions to South Africa in Transition examine a number of unexplored aspects of the democratic changes in South Africa, and deploy new theoretical perspectives to explain and analyze them. Drawing on a range of new theoretical idioms, ranging from post-structuralist political theory, discourse analysis, oral history, deconstructive criticism, feminist theory, to post-modernism and post-colonial studies, the book explores key aspects of the current democratic transition process.
