Acerca de este producto

Product Information

How does democracy fare when the people governed insist they live in a world with witches? If the government of a people afflicted by witchcraft refuses to punish witches, how does it avoid becoming alienated from the perceived needs of its people or, worse, seen as being in league with witches? In Soweto, South Africa, the constant threat of violent crime, the increase in black socio-economic inequality, the AIDS pandemic, and a widespread fear of witchcraft have converged to create a pervasive sense of insecurity among citizens and a unique public policy problem for government. In Witchcraft, Violence, and Democracy in South Africa, Adam Ashforth examines how people in Soweto and other parts of post-apartheid South Africa manage their fear of 'evil forces' such as witchcraft. Ashforth examines the dynamics of insecurity in the everyday life of Soweto at the turn of the twenty-first century. He develops a new framework for understanding occult violence as a form of spiritual insecurity and documents new patterns of interpretation attributing agency to evil forces. Finally, he analyzes the response of post-apartheid governments to issues of spiritual insecurity and suggests how these matters pose severe long-term challenges to the legitimacy of the democratic state.

    A difficult set to find online in good shape and at the right price with the shipping from UK sellers. So I am very pleased with the purchase. Seller responded quickly to a shipping question, even while away. The items arrived in excellent shape, truly as new condition as described, thanks to the careful packing. Very pleased, HIGHLY RECOMMEND this seller in Birmingham, UK, even to American buyers.

    This purchase arrived exactly as described, as new, unread condition. Excellent price agreed. Posted for next day delivery, arrived on time. Superbly packaged (as always) in bubble wrap in middle of sturdy box filled with polystyrene. Have bought, with confidence, from this seller many times before and will continue to do so in the future. Gives me great pleasure to be able to thoroughly recommend him to one and all, Kind regards, Tony
