The image of a pristine isolation has been almost as common in research on foragers as in the popular media. Land filled with Flies is a sustained argument against such views. Wilmsen marshals an enormous quantity of historical, archival, archaeological, ethnographic, and survey data on the Kalahari Zhu to show how far from the reality these images are, how they have their own historical provenance, how they have been analytically distorting, and how they have proven politically pernicious for living groups like the Zhu. -Pauline Peters, Science
From the Back Cover: When rains descend on Southern Africa, especially on those parts where cattle are kept, flies regenerate in numbers intolerable to Western sensibilities. Photographs of these winged invaders of eyes and nostrils, of milk pails and teacups, found in dozens of coffee-table books and television documentaries, faithfully depict this reality of rural… Read More

The study of ancient law has blossomed in recent years. In English alone there have been dozens of studies devoted to classical Greek and Roman law, to the Roman legal codes, and to the legal traditions of the ancient Near East among many other topics. Legal documents written on papyrus began to be published in some abundance by the end of the nineteenth century; but even after substantial publication history, legal papyri have not received due attention from legal historians. This book blends the two usually distinct juristic scholarly traditions, classical and Egyptological, into a coherent presentation of the legal documents from Egypt from the Ptolemaic to the late Byzantine periods, all translated and accompanied by expert commentary. The volume will serve as an introduction to the rich legal sources from Egypt in the later phases of its ancient history as well as a tool to compare legal documents from other… Read More

Hardcover, 122 pages
David Krut Publishing, in collaboration with Natalie Knight, is pleased to announce the publication of l Afrique: A Tribute to Maria Stein-Lessing and Leopold Spiegel, forthcoming in May 2009. l Afrique celebrates the lives and work of two extraordinary personalities, Maria Stein-Lessing and Leopold Spiegel, who produced an important legacy in the field of African and South African art and artefacts. Through the memories of people closest to them and essays by Natalie Knight, Paula Girshick and Nessa Leibhammer, the book traces the lives of Stein-Lessing and Spiegel and records their vital contribution to the study and collecting of African art. Maria Stein-Lessing left Germany in 1933 for London and, after receiving her Doctorate from the University of Bonn, travelled to South Africa in 1936, where she remained until her tragic death in 1961.

The Matopo Hills, an area of rugged and majestic hills in Zimbabwe, contain a staggering number of prehistoric rock paintings. Eighteen years of fieldwork in this area has produced a stunning collection of rock art images, many previously unpublished and probably unique to the Matopo region. These rock paintings are a unique record of hunter-gatherer society and provide insights into the relationship between hunter-gatherers and immigrant pastoralists, evidence that is generally lacking in the archaeology of the area. Well over one thousand painted panels have been closely observed and the illustrations presented here have been drawn from 124 separate sites. The exact copies have been produced using techniques that scrupulously avoid direct contact with the images and are the work of Janet Duff, a scientific illustrator. This method emphasises the importance of conservation and preservation which is also discussed extensively in… Read More

Paperback, 236 pages
This is a collection of short stories in isiZulu that were written by first-time women writers. It is the result of one of the projects undertaken by the University Language Planning and Development Office at the University of KwaZulu-Natal. This office challenged new women writers to make their contribution to literary works and allow their voices to be heard. In accepting this challenge, the participants wrote about themes that directly touch their lives, including love, gender-based violence, education, human rights, witchcraft, culture, and the killing of people with albinism. In this collection we see women breaking the silence about what is deep-rooted in their hearts.

Labour Beyond Cosatu is the fourth volume in the series Taking Democracy Seriously – a ground-breaking, textured and nuanced study on workers and democracy – which was established in the 1990s. The series looks at members of trade unions affiliated to the Congress of South African Trade Unions (Cosatu) and provides a rich database of trade union members and research conducted over the past twenty years. It is one of the very few such resources available to researchers anywhere in the world. Labour Beyond Cosatu paints a complex picture. The 12 chapters of the volume explore various rebellions and conflicts in the trade union sector, starting with the National Union of Mineworkers (NUM) and rivalries between Cosatu affiliates. Unpacking the conflicts between state-sector and private-sector workers, contributors look at the impact of generational and educational shifts, seen by some commentators as proof that Cosatu is… Read More

Labour Law Rules! is aimed principally at students who engage with labour law for the first time during their studies. Labour law is a compulsory subject for LLB students, and increasingly so for BCom students at South African universities. In addition, IR and HR practitioners, line managers, supervisors and union officials will all find the book useful..
In the past three years, since publication of the second edition of Labour Law Rules!, some significant events took place which impacted on labour law, resulting in a number of changes to reform labour law.
This thoroughly updated Third Edition not only renders it completely current, with reference to the latest in legislation and case law, but also adds new commentary on the sections (197, 197A and 197B) of the LRA dealing with transfers of contracts of employment when a business is sold as a going concern or in circumstances of insolvency.

Now in its second revised edition, Labour Law in Practice has sold over 10 000 copies and has helped numerous South African managers and business owners navigate their way safely through what sometimes seems to be an impenetrable maze of labour law and practice.Andrew Levy, arguably South Africa’s best-known labour resource, has over 50 years’ experience in the field, and has taught and trained thousands of students and managers. In Andrew’s opinion, labour relations are not difficult – it is really a matter of common sense and being able to judge an issue based on the facts. His teaching method is to reduce complex issues into simple and logical steps, and then to show how these can be taken with confidence.Written in an easy-to-understand style and laid out in an accessible format, this book covers all essential labour law areas, including hiring new staff, terminating employment contracts, handling poor performance and… Read More

This title critically examines the responses of the working classes of the world to the challenges posed by the neoliberal restructuring of the global economy. Neoliberal globalization has created new forms of polarisation in the world. A renewal of working class internationalism must address the situation of both the more privileged segments of the working class and the more impoverished ones.

Eighteen seventy-nine was a crucial year in south African history. The Zulu Kingdom and the Pedi policy, two vital obstacles to the colonial control, were bludgeoned into submission by British-led armies. The events involved in the rise and destruction of Zulu power have inspired a rich literature. The history of the Pedi, by contrast, is much less well known - despite the contemporary view that among Transvaal Africans the Pedi paramount Sekhukhune énjoyed a fame as a chief of dignity and importance hardly inferior to the fame of Cetshwayo among the Zulus.' THis account focuses ofnthe history of the Pedi policy. It covers the decades spannign two fundamental refashionings of the relations of power in South Africa : the upheavals of the difaqane in the 1820s, and the aggressive British imperialism of the 1870s.

This book was first published in 1987 when land degradation was one of the major conservation issues of that decade. Australian scientists were at the fore in awakening world interest in this complex phenomenon and in contributing to debate. This book presents a broad multi-disciplinary perspective on the challenge of problems of degrading land, including the onsite and offsite effects of soil erosion, nutrient loss, and salinisation and on the conservation policies needed to meet the challenge. The volume brings together leading contributors to the field of soil conservation from the natural sciences, from economics and the social sciences, and representatives of farming and conservation organisations. The contributions by natural scientists provide the biological and physical setting to the problem. Chapters on economic, legal and social aspects provide empirical information, together with a conceptual and… Read More

Who controls the land and minerals in the former Bantustans of South Africa - chiefs, the state or landholders? Disputes are taking place around the ownership of resources, decisions about their exploitation and who should benefit. With respect to all of these issues, the courts have become increasingly important.
The contributors to Land, Law and Chiefs in Rural South Africa capture some of these intense contestations over land, law and political authority, focussing on threats to the rights of ordinary people. History and customary law feature strongly in most disputes and succession to chieftaincy is also frequently disputed. Judges have to make decisions in a context where rival claimants to property or office assert their own versions of history and custom. The South African constitution recognises customary law and the courts are attempting to incorporate and develop this branch of jurisprudence as 'living customary… Read More
