King Shaka ka Senzangakhona
The development and expansion of the Zulu Kingdom under Shaka has received much scholarly attention from scholars interested in Southern African state formation systems. Shaka has been extensively written about in history; however, mostly in unpleasant terms. European historians have described him as a bloodthirsty tyrant, a despotic, cruel monster and a savage whose kingdom was founded on the blood of the martyrs. The scholarship about the rise …
The Trapped ‘Promised Land’
There is a vast body of mainstream literature on the land question in South Africa. However, there is limited scholarly literature on the pending community land claims.

Land dispossession, coupled with the delayed settlement of the community’s land claim, has condemned the community to landlessness and poverty. This s…

In the precolonial Zulu Kingdom, royal women enjoyed various privileges and responsibilities and contributed significantly to the Kingdom’s aggrandisement, but written sources of detailed accounts of their contributions were limited. Queen Nandi, who, as a single mother, raised Shaka and nurtured him into adulthood is not suf…
