But as this fascinating study shows, the racial history of South Africa is much more complex than a simple struggle between black and white. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eHow did South Africa become a crossroads for peoples as diverse as the Zulu, the Xhosa, the Dutch, and the Chinese? Did the end of apartheid really herald a new dawn in race relations, or have the scars of those years yet to truly heal? To answer these questions, this timely volume examines South Africa's ethnic history over 500 years. From the earliest contacts between Europeans and Africans to the country's changing role in the post-apartheid era, this reference work traces the fascinating racial history of South Africa before, during, and after the apartheid years.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Sally Frankental,Owen Sichone\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1576076741\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781576076743\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e ABC-CLIO\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/13\/2005\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 336\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.24lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.32h x 6.52w x 0.90d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eReference and Research Bk News\u003c\/i\u003e 11\/01\/2006 pg. 61\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eRec Ref Bks for Small\/Med Libr\u003c\/i\u003e 01\/01\/2007 pg. 25\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eAmerican Reference Bks Annual\u003c\/i\u003e 01\/01\/2007 pg. 45","brand":"Sally Frankental","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":47965826810111,"sku":"9781576076743","price":83.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_deb9dbf6-9b80-408c-85c8-aade11ed008d.jpg?v=1767285102","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/south-africas-diverse-peoples-sally-frankental-9781576076743","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
