        »Lieber Papa!«

        by Marie Bernhard, Antje Damm

        Wir lernen ihn mitunter erst spät besser kennen, erkennen uns aber, ob wir wollen oder nicht, in ihm wieder, je älter wir selbst werden: unseren Vater. Das Lesebuch »Lieber Papa!« enthält Erinnerungen von Lily Brett, Annie Ernaux oder Philip Roth, die von ihren berührenden Erlebnissen als Tochter oder Sohn mit diesem Mann erzählen. Wer ist er eigentlich, warum scheint er uns oft weniger vertraut zu sein als unsere Mutter? Lars Brandt weiß, dass von ihm keine Küsse zu erwarten waren, Arno Geiger hat seinen dementen Vater als König im Exil betreut und Axel Hacke berichtet, wie es sich anfühlt, auf der anderen Seite zu stehen, selbst Vater zu sein. Das Buch, liebevoll illustriert von Antje Damm, ist letztlich eine kleine literarische Reise zu uns selbst.

        Settlers at the end of empire

        Race and the politics of migration in South Africa, Rhodesia and the United Kingdom

        by Jean Smith

        Settlers at the end of empire traces the development of racialised migration regimes in South Africa, Rhodesia (present-day Zimbabwe) and the United Kingdom from the Second World War to the end of apartheid in 1994. While South Africa and Rhodesia, like other settler colonies, had a long history of restricting the entry of migrants of colour, in the 1960s under existential threat and after abandoning formal ties with the Commonwealth they began to actively recruit white migrants, the majority of whom were British. At the same time, with the 1962 Commonwealth Immigrants Act, the British government began to implement restrictions aimed at slowing the migration of British subjects of colour. In all three nations, these policies were aimed at the preservation of nations imagined as white, revealing the persistence of the racial ideologies of empire across the era of decolonisation.

        Science and society in southern Africa

        by Andrew Thompson, Saul Dubow, John Mackenzie

        This collection, dealing with case studies drawn from South Africa, Zimbabwe, Mozambique and Mauritius, examines the relationship between scientific claims and practices, and the exercise of colonial power. It challenges conventional views that portray science as a detached mode of reasoning with the capacity to confer benefits in a more or less even-handed manner. That science has the potential to further the collective good is not fundamentally at issue, but science can also be seen as complicit in processes of colonial domination. Not only did science assist in bolstering aspects of colonial power and exploitation, it also possessed a significant ideological component: it offered a means of legitimating colonial authority by counter-poising Western rationality to native superstition and it served to enhance the self-image of colonial or settler elites in important respects. This innovative volume ranges broadly through topics such as statistics, medicine, eugenics, agriculture, entomology and botany. ;
