Sonn, Christopher, Bowman, Brett and Duncan, Norman (2010) Editorial : towards a psychology of South Africa's histories - living with and through the apartheid archive. South African Journal of Psychology, 40 (4). pp. 365-369. ISSN 0081-2463

Abstract

The articles that constitute this special issue demonstrate that the collapse of formal apartheid has not erased its powerful racist imprint on the psychic lives and subjectivities of South Africans. Together, these articles show that apartheid continues to shape our inner-worlds, everyday relationships and systems of thinking. As such, this special issue ultimately hopes to contribute to the growing body of literature that insists that real South African transformation will never be realised without moving beyond material redress and acknowledging the importance of remembering.
