My review of the edited book 'History Beyond Apartheid' is now available in The Journal of African History. The book is a kind of snapshot and guide to how historical scholarship on South Affrica has expanded and fragmented over the last 30 years: cambridge.org/core/journals/…



In a new episode of our podcast, John Aerni-Flessner speaks with editor Moses Ochonu about a plan to build a ski resort in QwaQwa in apartheid South Africa. #OA article here: bit.ly/4ebD5vH Podcast available on Apple, Google, Spotify, and streaming: podbean.com/eas/pb-aem9m-1…

The editors support Séverine Awenengo Dalberto @sevead.bsky.social, whose work is being unfairly instrumentalized for political ends: tinyurl.com/26dyp6sv She is a historian not a state agent. Her scholarship underwent rigorous peer-review to be published in this very journal. #OA link: bit.ly/4i9J86r
