Pre-Owned The Making of Modern South Africa: Conquest, Apartheid, Democracy (Historical Association Studies) (Paperback) 1405154292 9781405154291

In the Making of Modern South Africa, Nigel Worden provides a comprehensive and up-to-date introduction to the key themes and debates central to an understanding of the region. The book examines the major issues in South Africa's history: the colonial conquests of the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries; the establishment of racism, segregation, and apartheid; the spirit of reform, resistance and repression of the 1980s; and the eventual break up of institutional apartheid and founding of democracy. For this fourth edition, a completely rewritten final chapter takes the story from 1994 to the present, alongside new and revised maps and an updated further reading section. Professor Worden places the new South Africa in a wide historical context and provides a sharp, analytical overview for all those interested in modern South African history and politics.Good Condition: Minimal damage to the cover, dust jacket may not be included, minimal wear to binding, most of the pages undamaged(e.g., minimal creases or tears), highlighting / underlining acceptable on books as long as the text is readable and markings are not excessive, no missing pages.
