Epilogue: 'a tragic optimism.' 520 $a Free Fall recounts how and why the present education crisis in South Africa has become the leading cause for black university students. Probing deep beneath the surface of the crisis, the book reveals uncomfortable truths about colonial- and apartheid-era education, and traces the tangled web of connections between foreign and South African business interests, the apartheid government, and the role of universities in propping up a white elite and coopting a subservient black class to their cause. It brings to life the people and ideas that, over a century-and-a-half, have created a perfect storm for the present crisis in South African higher education. Malcolm Ray combines intellectual rigour with the intimacy of narrative non-fiction, introducing readers to the main protagonists since the end of slavery in 1834, through the rise of missionary education as an instrument of indoctrinating and subjugating black people, and into the apartheid era. Beyond apartheid, the book details how policy blunders by the democratic government since 1994 have conspired with the past to fuel South Africaâs slide into increasing economic and social disarray. It is the story of the failure of South Africa's democratic government to deal with major fault lines fissuring higher education, and the circumstances that led to the #RhodesMustFall and #FeesMustFall movements in 2015. The book ends on a high note, answering the question: âWhat now?â This book aims to be the beginning of the solution. 650 0 $a Education $z South Africa $x History. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh2008119021 650 0 $a Education, Higher $z South Africa $x History. 650 0 $a Universities and colleges $z South Africa $x History. 650 0 $a Universities and colleges $z South Africa $x Finance. 650 0 $a Student movements $z South Africa. 650 0 $a Student movements $z South Africa $x History. 650 7 $a Education. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00902499 650 7 $a Education, Higher. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00903005 650 7 $a Student movements. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01135954 650 7 $a Universities and colleges. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01161597 650 7 $a Universities and colleges $x Finance. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01161770 651 7 $a South Africa. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01204616 655 7 $a History. $2 fast $0 http://id.worldcat.org/fast/1411628 $0 http://id.worldcat.org/fast/1411628 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20171226043621.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=D324F768EA0B11E7B6F5700597128E48Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
