- This 302-page monograph examines a defining aspect of apartheid: mass relocation to the so-called ‘homelands’. The book develops an extended, multi-layered analysis of the histories of displacement and resettlement into Sada and Ilinge, two notorious apartheid ‘dumping grounds’ in the former Ciskei bantustan. This episode has often been obscured owing to the limited and scattered archival evidence. The book draws on extensive documentary research in national and local archives across South Africa, alongside a substantial collection (100+) of oral history interviews undertaken by the author. Please discount chapter 6 as it appears as a separate output in the REF2020 submission.
