The episteme of academia in Africa
In hierdie artikel word aangetoon dat die stand van die akademie 'n Afrika ten nouste saamhang met die politieke aspirasies van die heersende politieke party. Die oorspronklike idee van die universiteit, soos oorgelewer deur die eeue, word hierdeur nietig verklaar, sodat die konsep van 'universiteit', soos ons dit vandag ken, eintlik 'n kontradiksie in terme is. Vanweë die praktiese eise van Afrikaregerings moet die konsep van 'universiteit' na r…
The Victorian Encounter with Marx
Ernest Belfort Bax was among the most original and gifted of the first generation of Marxists in Victorian England, and an intimate of luminaries such as William Morris, who considered him the philosopher of the movement. He had first-hand experience of the 19th century tradition of German philosophy which so profoundly influenced Karl Marx, and was a close friend of Engels. Bax was a prolific writer and speaker, the organizer of the Second Inter…
Cultural 'fusions
In recent years, a surprising void has opened in discussions of the evolution of twentieth-century British popular music. Directly and indirectly, much attention has been given to the influence of the United States.

Really the 'Walking Blues
On the surface, a study of the evolution of a particular regional Afro-American folk-music style does not appear to be directly connected with the development of popular music. Yet, in one way or another since the 1930s, Son House, Robert Johnson and Muddy Waters, aspects of whose music I discuss here, have all influenced both the development of black blues and, in a much wider context, American and European popular music in general. Johnson and …
Poor People's Movements
Have the poor fared best by participating in conventional electoral politics or by engaging in mass defiance and disruption? The authors of the classic Regulating The Poor assess the successes and failures of these two strategies as they examine, in this provocative study, four protest movements of lower-class groups in 20th century America: -- The mobilization of the unemployed during the Great Depression that gave rise to the Workers' Alliance …
