内容説明

"The Atlas of Apartheid" demonstrates the highly spatial aspects of the South African government's racial policy since the National Party came to power in 1948. The study is framed by an analysis of the influence of the colonial and dominion periods and the historical and geographical legacy for a post-apartheid South Africa. Racial separation operated at the three distinct levels of "petty apartheid", urban segregation and "grand apartheid". Petty apartheid involved detailed social segregation, including separate sections of post offices and other official buildings for whites and others. This was extended to separate recreational facilities, transport and churches. Urban segregation - most notoriously through the "Group Areas Act" - sought to segregate place of residence and commerce. South African cities were redesigned as Africans were moved out of urban centres to leave zones for whites. Grand apartheid - the forced resettlement and restriction of Africans to the new homelands - confirmed the policy of excluding the majority of the population from South Africa's political process. The "Atlas" describes the legislation and impact of apartheid and the resistance, both local and international.

内容説明

This work presents an analysis of spatial segregation in South Africa since the National Party came to power in 1948. Written at the end of the apartheid era, it provides an overview of the effects of apartheid on South African society. The atlas describes the legislation and impact of apartheid and the resistance, both local and international, to its racial policies. The integration of detailed maps and text reinforces the specifically spatial nature of apartheid, and demonstrates the way in which the map of South Africa was redrawn and continues to be redrawn.
