Great Eggspectations
Also called oocyte cryopreservation or oocyte banking, “egg freezing” is an assisted reproductive procedure that allows people with ovaries to preserve oocytes for use in the future. “Medical egg freezing” has become established as a procedure for patients undergoing gonadotoxic chemotherapy or gynaecological surgery. In contrast, “social egg freezing” (SEF) is undertaken by patients with no current fertility issues in anticipation that they will…

Collective Rural Identity in Steinkopf, a Communal Coloured Reserve, c.1926–1996
Steinkopf, a former coloured reserve located in Namaqualand, Northern Cape Province South Africa, provides an opportunity to explore the resiliency of collective identity across twentieth-century industrial capitalism and the various externally imposed borders, classifications and policies designed to fracture that identity. Ethnographic data reinforce my contention that the notion of local citizenship manifested through communal land tenure stre…

The Nederduitse Gereformeerde Sendingkerk and the Nama Experience in Namaqualand, South Africa
In Steinkopf, a former coloured Reserve in the Northern Cape Province, the Nederduitse Gereformeerde Sendingkerk (NGS; Dutch Reformed Mission Church), a former sub-branch of the Nederduitse Gereformeerde Kerk (NGK; Dutch Reformed Church) forged a legitimate public space for the expression of Nama identity in the 1960s. The legitimisation of aboriginal identity was not accidental, but very much an expression of apartheid policies of the day. I hop…

Community and race relations training for the police
Relationships between the police and Britain's black communities have been characterised by tensions, which at times have erupted into overt conflict. The policy response has tended to see training as the panacea. This article examines the development of the police training response in what has come to be termed ‘community and race relations’: the diagnosis of training need, the forms such training has taken, and the experience of an independent …
Cypriot migration to Britain prior to World War II
In contrast with other ethnic groups of ‘New Commonwealth’ origin, Cypriot migration to Britain is not simply a post‐war phenomenon. By the outbreak of war in 1939 there was already a substantial Cypriot immigrant community in London, established over the previous two decades. The article traces the origins of this migration and its development during the 1920s and 1930s, together with the factors which gave rise to it and the measures introduced…
The control of cypriot migration to Britain between the wars
Immigration to Britain from countries of the so‐called ‘New Commonwealth’ is widely supposed to have become subject to formal control for the first time with the Commonwealth Immigrants Act of 1962. This article shows that immigration from Cyprus had already come under control prior to the Second World War. It describes the way in which Cypriot settlement in London came to be perceived officially as a ‘problem’, and how ‐ given the inability of t…
