About the book
This is an engaging set of critical interviews held by editors Sayan Dey and Shankhadeep Chattopadhyay with a range of South Africans around the impact of the Covid-19 pandemic.
Contributors share their experiences from different disciplinary and cross-disciplinary dimensions. The volume address a variety of aspects previously unaddressed, offering a powerful addition to the growing field of pandemic and post-pandemic scholarship.
Voices gathered into dialogue range from Dené Du Rand (Psychology), Kenneth Kaplan (Media Studies), Sihlanganiso Khumalo (Development Studies), Siseko Kumalo (Political Philosophy), Rozena Maart (Race and Identity Studies), Tshepo Madlingozi (Legal Studies), Bongani Mkhonza (Art Curation), Sabelo J. Ndlovu-Gatsheni (Decolonial Theory), Luthando Ngema (Media and Cultural Studies), Paul Prinsloo (Open and Distance Learning), and Norma RA Romm (Adult Education and Youth Development).
“The conversational approach used in this book fruitfully shifts mainstream genres of academia … to engender a wider readership across academic disciplines and social practices. By using multi-layered paradigms and viewpoints, the volume engrosses the reader in the multiplicity of historical and contemporary challenges associated with Covid-19…”
