- Work in Progress, Issue no. 36
- Description
- A 48-page issue published during a deepening crisis of "township rule." The editorial reflects on the police shootings in Uitenhage's Langa township, characterizing the situation as a "civil war." Key articles include a critique of the Namibian "Honourable Peace" negotiations, the formation of COAWUSA, a study of the SASOL dismissals, and an analysis of the "Media Murders" (retrenchments at SAAN). The issue also highlights the emergence of a "surprisingly united disinvestment lobby" in the USA.
