Text and Context: The South African Case of Home Affairs

Pages 81-100 | Published online: 29 Feb 2008
 

Notes

1. Anthony Fourie, personal communication, 31 March 2006.

2. I have been unable to ascertain whether Home Affairs was shot in black-and-white cinematography for some episodes or whether the colour on some of the videotapes was lost during the videotaping process or when the show was reformatted from PAL to the NTSC system.

3. See for instance Modleski Citation(1982), Dyer Citation(1981), Hobson Citation(1982), Feuer Citation(1984), Kuhn Citation(1984), Ang Citation(1985).

4. Although Lynette Steenveld and Larry Strelitz argue that the direct correlation between the government's ideology and the policies of the SABC-TV was not taken to be transparent in drama and other genres not considered political (see Steenveld and Strelitz Citation1994:39).

5. Soap operas are referred to as ‘soapies’ both onscreen and colloquially in South Africa.

6. A South African term for young unemployed men who usually belong to a gang.
