With this promise came an injunction: define yourself as you truly are, as an individual, and as a community. Almost two decades later it is clear that it was less the prospect of that future than the habits and horizons of anxious life in racially defined enclaves that determined postapartheid freedom. In this book, Thomas Blom Hansen offers an in-depth analysis of the uncertainties, dreams, and anxieties that have accompanied postapartheid freedoms in Chatsworth, a formerly Indian township in Durban. Exploring five decades of township life, Hansen tells the stories of ordinary Indians whose lives were racialized and framed by the township, and how these residents domesticated and inhabited this urban space and its institutions, during apartheid and after. Hansen demonstrates the complex and ambivalent nature of ordinary township life. While the ideology of apartheid was widely rejected, its practical institutions, from urban planning to houses, schools, and religious spaces, were embraced in order to remake the community. Hansen describes how the racial segmentation of South African society still informs daily life, notions of race, personhood, morality, and religious ethics. He also demonstrates the force of global religious imaginings that promise a universal and inclusive community amid uncertain lives and futures in the postapartheid nation-state. 606 $aEast Indians$zSouth Africa$zDurban 607 $aChatsworth (Durban, South Africa)$xRace relations 607 $aChatsworth (Durban, South Africa)$xSocial conditions 607 $aChatsworth (Durban, South Africa)$xReligion 607 $aDurban (South Africa)$xRace relations 607 $aDurban (South Africa)$xSocial conditions 607 $aDurban (South Africa)$xReligion 610 $aAfricans. 610 $aAsiatic question. 610 $aBollywood films. 610 $aChatsworth. 610 $aDurban. 610 $aHinduism. 610 $aIndian life. 610 $aIndian middle class. 610 $aIndian township. 610 $aIndian townships. 610 $aIndian. 610 $aIndians. 610 $aJacob Zuma. 610 $aMuslims. 610 $aNatal. 610 $aPentecostal Christianity. 610 $aSouth Africa. 610 $aSouth African Indians. 610 $aSouth Africans. 610 $aambition. 610 $aapartheid regulation. 610 $aapartheid. 610 $aautonomy. 610 $acharou. 610 $achurch communities. 610 $acolonialism. 610 $acoolie. 610 $acultural economy. 610 $acultural intimacy. 610 $acultural mobility. 610 $aculturally alien people. 610 $acynicism. 610 $adiasporic imagination. 610 $adisengagement. 610 $aethnoracial definition. 610 $akombi taxi. 610 $amajoritarianism. 610 $aminorities. 610 $aneo-Hindu movements. 610 $anon-African communities. 610 $apolicy makers. 610 $apolitics. 610 $apostapartheid city. 610 $apostapartheid freedom. 610 $apostapartheid society. 610 $apostapartheid. 610 $aprivate taxi industry. 610 $apublic culture. 610 $arace lines. 610 $aracial practices. 610 $aracial segregation. 610 $aracialized identities. 610 $aracism. 610 $areligious identity. 610 $areligious purification. 610 $arepresentative politics. 610 $aroots tourism. 610 $asocial activists. 610 $asocial mobility. 610 $aspiritual purification. 610 $atownship politics. 610 $atraditional conservatism. 610 $aurban landscape. 610 $aurban music. 610 $aworking-class Indians. 610 $ayouth culture. 615 0$aEast Indians 676 $a305.891/41068455 700 $aHansen$b Thomas Blom$f1958-$0276734 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910790955303321 996 $aMelancholia of freedom$93675357 997 $aUNINA LEADER 01197nam 22003255u 450 001 996566865203316 005 20231221031204.0 035 $a(CKB)29229820700041 035 $a(Association for Computing Machinery)10.1145/3615886 035 $a(EXLCZ)9929229820700041 100 $a20231113h2023 f|| 0 101 0 $a||| 135 $aur||||||||||| 200 00$aProceedings of the 6th ACM SIGSPATIAL International Workshop on AI for Geographic Knowledge Discovery /$fEdited by Shawn Newsam, Lexie Yang, Gengchen Mai, Bruno Martins, Dalton Lunga, Song Gao 210 $cAssociation for Computing Machinery$d2023 215 $a1 online resource (135 p.;) 225 1 $aACM Conferences 311 08$a9798400703485 410 0$aACM Conferences 517 3 $aGeoAI '23 701 $aNewsam$b Shawn$01738348 701 $aYang$b Lexie$01738349 701 $aMai$b Gengchen$01738350 701 $aMartins$b Bruno$01286027 701 $aLunga$b Dalton$01410793 701 $aGao$b Song$01738307 906 $aBOOK 912 $a996566865203316 996 $aProceedings of the 6th ACM SIGSPATIAL International Workshop on AI for Geographic Knowledge Discovery$94160515 997 $aUNISA
