Notes

1. The ANC itself was to have published a major new history, but in the event all that appeared was a coffee-table book: Reiner Schoeman and Daryl Swanepoel, eds, Unity in Diversity: 100 Years of ANC Leadership (1912–2012) (Johannesburg: BM Books, 2012); South African Historical Journal, 64, 3, Special Issue, ‘The ANC at 100’ (2012), 64, 3, 381–746. Cf. C. Saunders, The ANC's 100 Years: Some Recent Work on its History in Historiographical Context’, Historia, November (2012).

2. Contrary to what is said on the Acknowledgements page, not all the papers delivered at the Wits conference are available on the South African History Online website.

3. Peter Limb, The ANC's Early Years: Nation, Class and Place in South Africa Before 1940 (Pretoria: Unisa Press, 2010).

4. It is hardly accurate to lump ‘settler and liberal traditions’ together and say that both were ‘largely oblivious to contemporary black politics’ (37), with a note merely referring to the works of Eddie Roux and Jack and Ray Simons (50, n10).

5. Susan Booysen, The African National Congress and the Regeneration of Political Power: People, Party, Policy (Johannesburg: Wits University Press, 2011).

6. See John Saul, The Next Liberation Struggle (Scottsville: University of KwaZulu-Natal Press, 2005), and other writing of his cited in his footnotes (numbers 363–365).
