The current student protests at South African universities can be understood within a broader context of (dis)continuities of apartheid. Although these protests have been happening at historically black universities for some time, only since they affected historically white universities have they become (inter)national news. South Africa’s current economic situation and the impact of neo-liberalism on global Higher Education mean that state funding has been drastically reduced. In this climate, students are trying to shape a new movement around an agenda of decolonization and a critique of transformation at universities. Please register
