  • More about South Africa's Dreams: Ethnologists and Apartheid in Namibia

South Africa's colonial policies in Namibia were a testing ground for its repressive 'Grand Apartheid infrastructure, and anthropologists played a role in justifying and implementing apartheid. This book analyses how the knowledge used to justify and implement apartheid was created, evaluates the matter of adjudicating South African anthropologists who supported the regime, and examines the influence of these policies on later policy at home.

South Africa's colonial policies in Namibia during the early sixties served as a testing ground for many key features of its repressive 'Grand Apartheid infrastructure, including strategies for countering anti-apartheid resistance. This book analyses how the knowledge used to justify and implement apartheid was created, exposing the role that anthropologists played. It critically evaluates the experiences in Namibia and their influence on later policy at home, as well as the matter of adjudicating the many South African anthropologists who supported the regime.
