Op soek na\u27n Mediabestel vir Suid·Afrika: \u27n Voorlopige antwoord aan Keyan Tomaselli
No full textCOMMUNICARE encourages the scientific debate. Our last contribu tion is published in response to the article of Tomaselli & Louw In 9(1), who questioned some of the predie tions regarding post-apartheid media In an earlier article by the author pub lished In 8(1). These are his repiles... Prof Keyan Tomaselli, Director of the Cultural Studies Unit at the University of Natal (Durban), is without doubt one of most prolific writers in the field of South African media and communication studies. This is not a matter of c tention; what is at stake in this review article Is the way in which Tomaselll deals with statements and facts in his pub lications. It is argued that Tomaselli Is prone to state a debatable point as a "scientific fact" and then proceeds to build a whole theoretical argument on this and similar "facts". It is fur ther argued that his article: \u27Vrye Weekblad\u27 and post-apartheld mania; what to do with the press? is a case In point

Contemporary campus life: transformation, manic managerialism and academentia
No full text"Arguably South Africa's most perceptive cultural studies scholar, Keyan Tomaselli takes the reader on a decidedly uncomfortable, insightful, and entertaining ride through the managerial university to show us, barefaced, what we have become.... In the mindless pursuit of efficiency, productivity, and measurement, we have lost sight of the broader purposes of education and the intrinsic value of academic work.... Tomaselli has produced one of the best available satires of academic life. - Jonathan Jansen, President, Academy of Science of South Africa.

Globalization and African Cinema: Distribution and Reception in the Anglophone Region
No full textGlobalization is the all-pervasive constituent of contemporary living, especially where it is underwritten by colonial histories. Keyan Tomaselli argues that European interpretive frameworks have determined readings of African texts.1 Globalization needs to be understood through the discourse of capital, to understand how entire societies have become affected economically and socially by the dynamics of diversity in this new international division of labor.2 Globalization is the narrative of socialization that also helps us to locate the local within the global
Savoir, souvenir, superstition ou discours collectif ? Quelques fissures dans les identités post-apartheid des personnages sud-africains dans les films The Day of the Two Suns (1999) et A Reasonable Man (1999)
No full textCommunauté, territoire, tradition ? Qu’est-ce qui constitue une communauté ? Keyan Tomaselli soutient que cette idée est trop souvent idéalisée par des critères déterministes, prise comme un phénomène réel et un fait tangible. Aujourd’hui, la perception sud-africaine du passé dont est née la nouvelle disposition politique, reste ternie par les histoires de ségrégation raciale, ainsi que par d’intenses perceptions d’identité passionnées, mais souvent non reflétées, dans le nouveau contexte nat..
Ethical Procedures? A Critical Intervention: The sacred, the profane, and the planet
Full text linkIssues relating to ethical clearance, how these procedures relate to very different ontologies, ways of making sense,conditions of existence, and the ideological implications thereof are critically discussed. Written as an invited intervention, the author takes readers through a variety of paradigms: indigenous approaches involving the sacred and the profane, instrumentalization of research; multispeciesism and research as a lived practice. Comments are offered on the nature of science and some questions are posed on the contradictions of ethical practices that readers encounter. The method is eclectic, read through a Peirceian pragmatism, and the outcome proposes relationality rather than the inevitability of discrete findings. Some conclusions are offered on the geographical distribution of populations sampled.</jats:p
