About this Book

In this her third major work on Southern African politics, Julie Frederikse examines the most pervasive and enduring ideological tendency in South African history - 'non-racialism'. The book traces the origin, development and resilience of this remarkable tradition through interviews with over 200 activists: veterans of the liberation movement like Ray Alexander, Billy Nair, and Joe Slovo, as well as a new generation of leaders like Cyril Ramaphosa, Frank Chikane and Cheryl Carolus.
