内容説明
South Africa is undergoing enormous changes, as we witness the upsurge in violence waged by those who wish to continue the bitter policies of segregation and disenfranchisement, and those who want a share of the power in the new system. In "Homelands, Harlem and Hollywood", Nixon argues that no other anti-colonial campaign since World War II has had such a lasting or global effect as the one to end apartheid. Encompassing the period between 1948, the official inception of the laws and policies of South Africa's segregation, and the elections in 1994, this book explores the ties between South African culture and the international sphere. In a wide-ranging analysis, "Homelands, Harlem and Hollywood" looks at the Hollywood representations of the struggle for liberation, the impact of the Harlem renaissance on the Sophiatown writers, the banning and censorship of television under apartheid, Mandela and messianic politics, the sports and cultural boycotts, ethnic nationalism and the culture of violence. The book concludes with an analysis of events in Eastern Europe and the former Soviet Union - the collapse of communism and anti-communism and the process of "ethnic cleansing".
