This historic event has generated significant public debate within both the ANC and South African society at large. There is no better time to critically reflect on the ANC's historical trajectory and struggle against colonialism and apartheid than in its centennial year. One Hundred Years of the ANC is a collection of new work by renowned South African and international scholars. Covering a broad chronological and geographical spectrum and using a diverse range of sources, the contributors build upon but also extend the historiography of the ANC by tapping into marginal spaces in ANC history. By moving away from the celebratory mode that has characterised much of the contemporary discussions on the centenary, the contributors suggest that the relationship between the histories of earlier struggles and the present needs to be rethought in more complex terms. Collectively, the book chapters challenge hegemonic narratives that have become an established part of South Africa's national discourse since 1994. By opening up debate around controversial or obscured aspects of the ANC's century-long history, One hundred years of the ANC sets out an agenda for future research. The book is directed at a wide readership with an interest in understanding the historical roots of South Africa's current politics will find this volume informative. This book is based on a selection of papers presented at the One Hundred Years of the ANC: Debating Liberation Histories and Democracy Today Conference held at the University of Witwatersrand, Johannesburg from 20-23 September 2011. 606 $aBlack people$zSouth Africa$xPolitics and government$y20th century$vCongresses 606 $aGovernment, Resistance to$zSouth Africa$xHistory$y20th century$vCongresses 607 $aSouth Africa$xPolitics and government$y20th century$vCongresses 615 0$aBlack people$xPolitics and government 615 0$aGovernment, Resistance to$xHistory 676 $a324.268/08309 700 $aApril$b Thozama$01208182 702 $aBadsha$b Omar 702 $aBarchiesi$b Franco 702 $aBonner$b Phil 702 $aBooysen$b Susan 702 $aErlank$b Natasha 702 $aEtherington$b Norman 702 $aGunner$b Liz 702 $aLissoni$b Arianna 702 $aMacmillan$b Hugh 702 $aNetshitenzhe$b Joel 702 $aNieftagodien$b Noor 702 $aSaul$b John 702 $aShubin$b Vladimir 702 $aSoske$b Jon 702 $aSoudien$b Crain 702 $aSouthall$b Roger 702 $aKessel$b Ineke 801 0$bUkCbUP 801 1$bUkCbUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910524903203321 996 $aOne hundred years of the ANC$92787263 997 $aUNINA
