Reassessing Mandela
Über dieses E-Book
The detailed essays are linked in a substantial introduction by Colin Bundy and current debates are addressed in a concluding essay by Elleke Boehmer. This book provides a scholarly counterweight both to uncritical celebration of Mandela and also to a simplistic attribution of post-apartheid shortcomings to the person of Mandela.
This book was originally published as a special issue of the Journal of Southern African Studies.
