反アパルトヘイト運動の指導者として、その顕著な活躍により「正義の象徴」とも謳われるネルソン・マンデラ(1918-2013年)。2008年に刊行した初版は、その影響、関心、主要な思想というレンズを通して彼の人物像と業績を読み解き、マンデラ研究の流れをつくりました。その死に対する反応、死後に登場したより批判的な文献、生誕100周年をきっかけとした再評価の動きを踏まえて改訂したこの第2版は、マンデラの「和解」の精神が意味するところ、そして互恵の倫理について広範かつ批判的に検討する革新的な考察となっています。
New to this Edition:
A pathbreaking analysis of the relationship between Mandela the myth, and Mandela the historical figure, looking at the way images, stories, and politics have been combined to create the iconic image of Mandela that we know today.
Boehmer explores the long trajectory of Mandela's life, explaining first the historical and political context of the struggle against apartheid in South Africa, and then the post-apartheid period of difficult reconciliation, including the shifts and changes in Mandela's reputation since the millennium.
This innovative postcolonial reflection takes on board the more critical revisionist literature on Mandela that has emerged since 2015, looking at responses to his death in 2013, and the 2018 commemorations of the 100th anniversary of his birth.
The first edition set a trend in scholarship on Mandela by reading his character and achievements through the lens of his influences, interests, and leading ideas. The second edition extends this focus with a far-reaching critical look at meanings of reconciliation and Mandela's ethic of reciprocity.
