Rather, as a product of imperial expansion, the South African state, capitalism and citizen identities have been uniquely shaped by a particular mode of domination, namely settler colonialism. South Africa, Settler Colonialism and the Failures of Liberal Democracy is an important work that sheds light on the nature of modernity, democracy and the complex politics of contemporary South Africa."--Page 4 of cover. 410 0$aAfrica now (Zed Books) 517 3 $aSettler colonialism and the failures of liberal democracy 606 $aDemocracy$zSouth Africa 606 $aLand tenure$zSouth Africa 606 $aPolitical structures: democracy$2bicssc 607 $aSouth Africa$xPolitics and government$y1994- 607 $aSouth Africa$xSocial conditions$y1994- 615 0$aDemocracy 615 0$aLand tenure 615 7$aPolitical structures: democracy 676 $a909 686 $aMI 65086$2rvk 700 $aReddy$b Thiven$01273160 712 02$aNordiska Afrikainstitutet. 801 0$bYDXCP 801 1$bCaBNVSL 801 2$bCaBNVSL 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910637798503321 996 $aSouth Africa, settler colonialism and the failures of liberal democracy$92999820 997 $aUNINA
