How has the position of Afrikaners
changed since the end of the Apartheid
regime in South Africa? Here Davies
portrays the stresses, strains and processes of change
in a rapidly evolving political landscape. Much has
been written about the African National Congress,
its support base and alliance partners in the
post-apartheid era, but Afrikaner politics and
identity remain underexplored.
Orthodox analyses suggested a bleak future for an
Afrikaner grouping in contemporary South Africa,
subjugated under an
ANC
government broadly
aligned against Afrikaner interests. While the once
sound links between the state, the regime and
Afrikaner nationalist identity have been irrevocably
altered, it is evident that this newly disempowered
minority still commands a vast material and
cultural capita]. Davies shows that certain Afrikaans
speakers have been increasingly marginalised in the
new order, while others have become important
players in the new South Africa and on the world
stage, enthusiastically embracing elements of the
wider politico-economic order. Indeed, prominent
Afrikaner constituencies including business and
cultural elites are flourishing in contemporary
South Africa. Davies argues that the global political
economy and the closely associated ideology· of
globalisation and neo-liberal economics are major
catalysts for change in Afrikaner identifications
and positions, resulting in 'successful' adaptations
to the post-apartheid context. She demonstrates
the links between these global influences and more
local social, economic and political developments,
showing how shifts in the global economy have
served to constrict or empower different elite and
non-elite Afrikaans constituencies.
Continued on back flap
Continued from fiontflap
Davies sheds light on a complex and riven
political context by identifying and deconstructing
multiple Afrikaner constituencies and identities,
and showing how they play out in the social,
economic and political landscape of South Africa.
By providing a detailed case study of the impact
of globalisation on identity and politics in societies
in flux, she advances a new theoretical framework
for understanding identity politics grounded in
an international political economy perspective.
Accessible, informative and well-written,
Aßi^iers
in the New South Africa is a vital contribution to
our understanding of post-apartheid South Africa.
It will be indispensable for readers and academics
interested in the politics of post-apartheid South
Africa, Afrikaners, identity politics, globalisation,
international political economy and geography.
Rebecca Davies is Senior Lecturer in the
