The Concentration Camps of the Anglo-Boer War
It is impossible in a short review to do justice to Elizabeth van Heyningen's multi-faceted account of the ‘concentration camps’ established by the British for white and black civilians caught up i

Science, Social Science and Pseudo-Science in the HIV/Aids Debate in Southern Africa
2006 marked the 25th anniversary of the recognition of the Human Immuno-deficiency Virus in Los Angeles as the cause of a disease which led to a series of baffling illnesses. It was first noticed in Kinshasa in 1975 then cut a swathe through the gay community of California and has swept with devastating effect across sub-Saharan Africa. If many uncertainties remain in the biomedical field the past quarter-century has seen quite remarkable advance…
The Silent Scourge? Silicosis, Respiratory Disease and Gold-Mining in South Africa
Mining companies in South Africa have publicised their benevolent concern for the health of their workers. However, there are legal, practical and political reasons for this concern. This article is concerned with the historical roots and complex interactions between tuberculosis, respiratory disease and HIV/AIDS. While the incidence of such illnesses remains high or growing, the post-apartheid order may compel the mining houses to take their res…

An Epidemic Waiting to Happen? The Spread of HIV/Aids in South Africa in Social and Historical Perspective
There can be few more vital issues confronting Southern Africa than the pandemic of HIV and AIDS currently ravaging the sub-continent. The paper is an attempt to place the spread of HIV/AIDS in Southern Africa in general and South Africa in particular in both its historical and social context. Yet what can an historian say about the AIDS pandemic? Our normal recourse is to look to the historians for the lessons of history both in order to see the…
Fertility in Southern Africa
Over the past twenty to thirty years, a silent revolution has occurred, and is still occurring, in human fertility across the region of southern Africa. In a number of countries - most notably, Zimbabwe, Botswana, South Africa and Lesotho - there is hard evidence of really significant declines in fertility. In these countries, the total fertility rate (TFR)' today is around three to four children, and in the first three countries this represents …
From of Revelation and Revolution to From Revelation to Reconciliation? A Comment
The two volumes of Jean and John Comaroff's Of Revelation and Revolution (RR) are a tour de force, and raise major questions about the nature of consciousness and the impact of modernity over the past two centuries. Despite their apparently narrow focus on missionaries among the southern Tswana, these are perhaps the most important issues to confront historians of the modern world. Yet historians of mission Christianity in South Africa have been …
Changing history, changing histories
In this paper, I revisit correspondence between Lily Moya, a fifteen-yearold school-girl growing up in the Eastern Cape, Mabel Palmer, a 74-year-old Fabian socialist and head of the 'Non-European' section of Natal University, and Sibusisiswe Makanya, the first Zulu woman to train as a social worker in the USA, which I first edited and published in 1987.

Issues in the political economy of health in Southern Africa
Over the past few years there have been major political developments in southern Africa. In the Republic of South Africa, the National Party's short-lived reformist strategy designed to buy off black discontent and to restructure apartheid in order to meet the changing demands of the economy has simply further fuelled black aspirations for their legitimate share of political and economic power. While some of the reforms may change the character o…
