In South Africa, the decade of 1980–1990 not only saw the mobilisation of the popular masses, but also the marked escalation of the armed struggle inside the country, initiated and waged by the African National Congress (ANC). The liberation movement, headed by the ANC-led Congress Alliance, took major strides which finally broke the backbone of white supremacist rule. This book examines and analyses the events leading to the settlement of democracy in South Africa during this period. Amongst other topics, the subject matter of this book also includes a discussion of – The apartheid regime ANC underground, armed actions and popular resistance Liberation struggle in the 1980s in the Eastern Cape Bophuthatswana and the role of the UDF in the Western Transvaal Trade Unionism Print editions not for sale in Sub-Saharan Africa. This book is part of Routledge’s co-published series 30 Years of Democracy in South Africa, in collaboration with UNISA Press, which reflects on the past years of a democratic South Africa and assesses the future opportunities and challenges.

This comprehensive handbook aims to challenge Christians to look at HIV/AIDS in a new light and consider fresh ways of responding to this humanitarian and theological crisis. God is calling us to do church differently. Although it is aimed squarely at Christian Churches, its applicability goes well beyond that. This is true especially for the appendices, which offer practical guidelines that will help anyone to meet the real lived needs of people living with HIV or AIDS. It challenges us how can we live out what God requires of us in South Africa today, where nearly 5 million people are living with HIV/AIDS, and more than 600 die every day.

It places the choir, and the cultural and political issues addressed in their music in the broader context of South Africa’s public health and political history, and the global culture and politics of AIDS.
