Book Synopsis A History of New Brighton, Port Elizabeth, South Africa, 1903-1953 by : Gary F. Baines
Download or read book A History of New Brighton, Port Elizabeth, South Africa, 1903-1953 written by Gary F. Baines. This book was released on 2002. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dr. Baines' careful scholarship is well repaid in this excellent and nuanced study of Port Elizabeth's African community. Hidden from urban history by the twin shadows of marginalisation in the city and distance from the economic heartlands of the country, New Brighton's past is excavated here by one of South Africa's foremost historians. It is a privilege and an honour to have been asked to write a preface for this impressive book. From his base at Rhodes University, Gary Baines has been working on the history of Port Elizabeth from the mid 1980s, and he completed the doctoral thesis on which the present book is based in 1994. The book is more rounded than the thesis, yet remains thoroughly scholarly and is extremely readable. Baines has produced a major work on the history of Port Elizabeth, one that will appeal to anyone interested in urban history in South Africa. Port Elizabeth has been fortunate in the historians it has attracted. Jenny Robinson and Joyce Kirk have published substantial books, while important theses and articles have appeared by A.J.Christopher, Janet Cherry and Kelvin Watson.

Book Synopsis Anatomy of the ANC in Power by : Mcebisi Ndletyana
Download or read book Anatomy of the ANC in Power written by Mcebisi Ndletyana. This book was released on 2020. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "South Africa's governing party, the African National Congress (ANC), has undergone dramatic changes over the last thirty years. Historically a hotbed of political activism, Port Elizabeth is an illuminating site. In 2016, observers greeted with shock the ANC's loss of the city, one of its crown jewels and a party stronghold. Yet, as this book shows through its analysis of power and politics in Port Elizabeth, the party's political decline was authored by its own hand. In Anatomy of the ANC in Power, the author presents an intimate portrait of the ANC at a local level over a 28-year period and one that informs what is now playing out at a national level. The book traces four stages that characterise the party's post-1990 life in Port Elizabeth: rebuilding; ascension to political office; political decline; and adaptation to new contexts where its power was lost or is under threat."
