How Ecofascism Creeps
An Army Afire: How the US Army Confronted Its Racial Crisis in the Vietnam Era
Divining Value: Cowries, the Ancestral Realm and the Global in Southern Africa
The global distribution of cowrie shells (Monetaria annulusandMonetaria moneta) attests to their exchange over long distances and their value in diverse cultural contexts. In addition to their commodification, cowries functioned as adornment, ritual, art and in the elaboration of both living and ancestral beings in many settings through time. Examining the circulation and usage of cowries in these different contexts facilitates an exploration of …

“Guerrilla Theater … in the Guise of Red, White, and Blue Bunting”: The People's Bicentennial Commission and the Politics of (Un-)Americanism
This article explores the battles over “Americanism” and “un-Americanism” that swirled around the People's Bicentennial Commission (PBC) – a radical, populist organization that sought to promote fundamental economic change during the mid-1970s. Although it was founded by 1960s veterans, the PBC was sharply critical of what it saw as the New Left's abandonment of Americanism. As the nation prepared to celebrate its two-hundredth birthday, the PBC …
Michael Stewart Foley. Front Porch Politics: The Forgotten Heyday of American Activism in the 1970s and 1980s
In Front Porch Politics: The Forgotten Heyday of American Activism in the 1970s and 1980s, Michael Stewart Foley seeks, by focusing on “front porch politics,” to demolish two long-established interpretations of the 1970s and 1980s: that the main story in town was a conservative political realignment, and, conversely, that it was a widespread retreat from civic life.” Foley provides an “on-the-ground history” of countless ordinary Americans—“accid…

Ores Sources, Smelters and Archaeometallurgy: Exploring Iron Age Metal Production in the Southern Waterberg, South Africa
The Southern Waterberg in Limpopo Province is archaeologically rich, especially when it comes to evidence of pre-colonial mining and metal working. Geologically, the area hosts important mineral resources such as copper, tin and iron which were smelted by agriculturalists in the precolonial period. In this region however, tin seems to be the major attraction given that Rooiberg is still the only source of cassiterite in southern Africa to have pr…
Identity and Political Centralisation in the Western Regions of Highveld, c.1770–c.1830: An Archaeological Perspective
Political centralisation in the area of present-day North West Province in the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries has conventionally been associated with a broad identity, homogenised as 'Tswana'. This article reviews the archaeological and oral evidence of identity from about ad 1500 through to the 1820s and elaborates a discussion of identity that focuses upon the cumulative accretion of at least two layers of people whose cultural …
Rethinking the American Anti-War Movement
Between 1965 and 1973, hundreds of thousands of ordinary Americans participated in one of the most remarkable and significant people's movements in American history. Through marches, rallies, draft resistance, teach-ins, civil disobedience, and non-violent demonstrations at both the national and local levels, Americans vehemently protested the country's involvement in the Vietnam War. Rethinking the American Anti-War Movement provides a short, ac…
Framing the American 1960s: A historiographical review
Those writing on the American 1960s continue to do so in the shadow of the ‘rise-and-fall’, or declension narrative. This interpretative framework, which draws heavily on contemporary journalism and the accounts of movement veterans, emphasizes how the idealism and optimism of the early decade eventually gave way to frustration and despair, as increasing numbers of activists came to embrace violence, and social movements disintegrated. By the end…
Reading across the Divides: Commentary on the Political Co-presence of Disparate Identities in Two Regions of South Africa in the Late Eighteenth and Early Nineteenth Centuries
This introduction draws attention to the value of a parallel reading of the separately authored articles which follow. It shows how a consideration of historical and archaeological research across the regional divide of south-east and north-west southern Africa unsettles a number of disciplinary orthodoxies, notably notions of distinct Nguni and Sotho identities. Complex political arrangements relating to differential access to economic resources…

Pre-Colonial Herding Strategies in the Shashe-Limpopo Basin, Southern Africa, Based on Strontium Isotope Analysis of Domestic Fauna
Archaeological sites in the Shashe-Limpopo River Basin, southern Africa, reflect marked population growth and increased socio- political complexity between ca AD 880 and 1290, but the nature of agropastoral management that underpinned these extensive, more complex societies is not well understood. One key question concerns whether localized or more widespread regional strategies were employed to manage large herds of domestic animals. In order to…

It presents South Africa's past in an objective, clear, and refreshing manner.

Tlokwa Oral Traditions and the Interface between History and Archaeology at Marothodi
Bridging the somewhat arbitrary divide between history and archaeology remains a critical aim of the study of the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries in the South African interior. Despite the prejudice inherent in the oral records collected by state ethnologist P.L. Breutz and others, it is argued that they still play a fundamental role in ascribing a historical identity to the countless Late Iron Age stone-walled sites that have been…

The article explores civil rights activism in Virginia during the 1960s— namely, the NAACP's response to direct-action protests in the state, the Southern Christian Leadership Conference's voter registration efforts, and the grassroots organizing of the Virginia Students' Civil Rights Committee. It uses these case studies to shed new light on important questions being debated by civil rights scholars—including the role of the NAACP, the relations…

Change in Paternal Involvement from 1977 to 1997: A Cohort Analysis
Contemporary social expectations of fathering promote an image of fathers more heavily involved in child rearing than their counterparts from past decades. However, some have questioned whether or not the actual “conduct” of fatherhood has changed over time. Fathers from two nationally representative data sets and from two distinct time periods—1977 and 1997—were selected to test whether there has been a change in the amount of time that fathers …

Philip Randolph, were initially opposed to the civil rights movement taking a stand against the war. This reluctance was the result of a number of factors, including anti-commu…

Peace and Freedom: The Civil Rights and Antiwar Movements in the 1960s
Two great social causes held center stage in American politics in the 1960s: the civil rights movement and the antiwar groundswell in the face of a deepening American military commitment in Vietnam. In Peace and Freedom, Simon Hall explores two linked themes: the civil rights movement's response to the war in Vietnam on the one hand and, on the other, the relationship between the black groups that opposed the war and the mainstream peace movement…

The Black Power Movement: Rethinking the Civil Rights-Black Power Era
After a period of relative neglect, a spate of recent publications has energized Black Power studies. Scholars have enthusiastically set about demolishing the traditional narrative, which viewed Black Power as marking a decisive (and regrettable) break with the civil rights movement, by highlighting continuities and similarities between the activism of the 1950s and early 1960s with the militant fervor that followed. In his introduction to this e…
