South Africa\u27s Easy Election Guide: Who To Vote For in 2024
South Africa’s most important election since 1994 may deliver the first coalition government in a democratic South Africa. However, as political parties vie for the votes of South Africans: How do citizens make the choice of where to put their mark? Who can they trust to give voice to their aspirations and help rebuild and grow Africa’s most developed economy to benefit more people in the world’s most unequal society
Thinking Through Food in South Africa: Identities, Embodiment and Representation
When we sit at individual or communal tables, we consider each other and our senses before taking a single bite. We think about what brought us to the table, who we are eating with, what meal will be served and possibly even where the food is from. South Africa is home to diverse cultures, histories, food heritages, culinary landscapes, food-growing and food-buying environments that collectively spice the food eaten and enjoyed by individuals and groups in the country. Food is sustenance, an access point, a historical and cultural marker and so much more. Thinking Through Food in South Africa: Identities, Embodiment and Representation explores the ways in which individuals define themselves and their role in society through food. This includes its role in school-based historical curriculum, alternative food networks, community-supported agriculture, intergenerational rituals and exchanges and its influence on economics, politics, migration and social cohesion. More than a study of ingredients, this book holds and guides a multi-layered conversation about food as home, practice and community

Academic, Archivist & Activist: A Tribute to Professor Karen Leigh Harris
Academic, Archivist & Activist is not merely an academic commemoration, but rather a celebratory tribute to a remarkable teacher, a formidable scholar and an extraordinary human being. Professor Karen Leigh Harris has had a phenomenal career, one which many academics dream of but only few are able to achieve. This volume consists of 26 contributions written by individuals from the breadth of Professor Harris’ career. Among the contributors, there are former students who became collaborators, mentors who became academic equals and colleagues who became friends. This tribute should be viewed as a semicolon rather than a full-stop – this is not a festschrift marking the end of Professor Harris’ distinctive career, but rather an acknowledgement to the impact she will continue to make within various disciplines and domains as well as the exciting endeavours she will undoubtedly undertake in the future.
