The dynamics of preserving cultural heritage
In 1943, the Kathiawad Hindu Seva Samaj brought together diverse castes of Gujarati‐speaking Hindus to promote language and culture. In doing so, it linked itself to Kathiawad in India outside of South Africa. The Samaj expanded its objective to build much‐needed English‐medium schools open to all Indians regardless of their backgrounds. It used state patronage; and adopted an apolitical stance towards the apartheid regime. After 1970, it redirec…

The Present in the Past
Based on their findings in a recent book he and Goolam Vahed wrote, the author argues that many present-day South African issues need to be more thoroughly located in the historical context of the early experience of Indians between 1860 and 1914, giving particular attention to Afro-Indian relations and to religion and culture
Spiritual Rope-Walkers
Much has been written on the Tolstoy Farm. Few essays, however, have examined it within the context of the relationship Mohandas K. Gandhi (1869-1948) cultivated with his German-Jewish South African friend, Hermann Haim Kallenbach (1871-1945).1 It is important to know Gandhi through somebody who was so closely associated with him. Gandhi needed time to reflect and revitalise around 1910, and Kallenbach provided him with the opportunity to do just…

Colour, Confusion and Concessions
For more than 300 years Chinese have been part of the fascinating mix of people who make up the inhabitants of the southern tip of Africa. Too minuscule in number to warrant any serious historical attention, they were unknown and largely forgotten in the wider South African context
Gandhi and South Africa
On Pietermaritzburg station in 1893, a young Indian lawyer, newly arrived in South Africa, was ejected from a train to Pretoria for insisting on his right to travel first class. It was to the cold night hours spent in the waiting-room that Gandhi himself traced the genesis of his great resolve - to fight injustice by non-violent means. Crucial as this episode was, it was but one of the manifold influences which shaped the Gandhi-to-be during his …
Unconventional Diplomacy in Southern Africa
Islam in South Africa
The author examines the Islamic institutions of South Africa over 200 years, from the first European colony in the 17th century through British colonialism and apartheid. He argues that the Imams' sermons function as symbols of the Word of God and as venues for interpretation of the Qu'ran

The book is aimed at readers interested in economic sanctions, the history of apartheid in South Africa, th…

Passive Resistance Among Indian South Africans
The United States and the Development of the Puerto Rican Status Question, 1936–1968
This study traces the evolution of political status in Puerto Rico from 1936 to 1968, with special emphasis on the events that led to the creation of the Commonwealth in 1952. No other work published in English has dealt with the Puerto Rican status question in such detail. The central problem in the status debate has been: how to strike a happy balance between Puerto Rico’s economic needs, which could be filled through uninterrupted association …
