South African Native Policy Never Changes
The Struggle for Law in South Africa
Oppression and Resistance in South Africa
We are narrowing our political and social rights. We are trying to withdraw even educational advantages from the mass of our people, who are Africans. [Now that] we have had our big Native wars and dispossessed the African of his land, we may get cheap labour for the mine-owners and the farmers, but we shall have created such a terrible proletariat as will be our ultimate undoing. So Olive Schreiner wrote about the Union of South Africa in 1912 w…

Native Courts and British Justice in Africa
Opening Paragraph For many years now Native courts have been a feature of colonial administration in British Africa. They are to be found in almost every district and they hear thousands of cases. Yet such is the confusion of thought that exists about their aims and functions that these courts have not yet made anything like the contribution to our knowledge of Native law that might have been expected
Some lobolo cases in native law
South Africa has a unique series of law reports devoted to the recording of cases between Natives in which Native law was applied. This important and valuable source of our knowledge of Native law has been neglected in the past. No doubt one reason for this neglect has been the fact that the reports, especially the older ones, were relatively inaccessible; and another reason may well be the difficulties that their technical language and tacit ass…
