Feminist fractured foundationalism has been developed over a series of collaborative writings as a combined epistemology and methodology, although it has mainly been discussed in epistemological terms. It was operationalised as a methodology in a joint research project in South Africa concerned with investigating two important ways that the experiences of children in the South African War 1899-1902, in particular in the concentration camps established during its commando and ‘scorched earth’ phase, were represented contemporaneously: in the official records, and in photography. The details of the research and writing process involved are provided around discussion of the nine strategies that compose feminist fractured foundationalism and its strengths and limitations in methodological terms are reviewed.

ABSTRACTDuring the last decades the Arctic has become more central on the world stage. However, despite increased interest how much do people really know about ‘the north’ and the ‘northern people’? The aim of this article is to chronicle a research project by students, who saw themselves as northerners, that used video to capture northerners’ definitions of the north, as well as asking the community about what they wanted newcomers and southern Canada to know about the north. The group also embarked on a new discipline of northerners studying ‘the south’. 43 students interviewed 95 people in the Beaufort Delta, Northwest Territories and 25 people in Edmonton, Alberta. The student researchers’ responses and that of their interviewees are some of the most direct messages on how northerners view their identity and that of their fellow southern Canadians. This project created a video tool to share, educate, and commence a dialogue between people about the north straight from the source.

The longest, west wall of the South Lower Portico (Portico of Obelisks) of the Temple of Hatshepsut at Deir el-Bahari has been reassessed in terms of its current state, compared to the original documentation by Edouard Naville, as an opening step to the author’s research project organized within the frame of the larger University of Warsaw Temple of Hatshepsut research program. A considerable number of blocks from the wall, including unpublished fragments, was tracked down in storage in the various temple blockyards and storerooms. About two-thirds of the wall decoration underwent conservation treatment in the spring of 2018 and 2019 seasons. The paper discusses the author’s progress in this research.

ABSTRACT The article critically examines the judgment in ex parte Somers (1927) 48 NPD 1 from both a legal and personal perspective. The judgment details the case of an Indian South African who requested the Court to grant his admission as a candidate attorney. The Court refused his application on the basis that he could not complete the set of courses required by the Supreme Court Rules, as his admission to Natal University College had been denied. Without detailing the reasons for the College's refusal, the Court reinforced the College's racial discriminatory policies. The article examines the judgment from two perspectives: courtrooms as a space of protest; and racial exclusion at law schools and the legal profession. Keywords: Racial discrimination, courtroom as a space of protest, law schools, legal profession

The analysis of the key agents for the formation of patriotic practices in youth and the nature of their influence on young people as subjects of patriotic activity is of considerable interest to sociological science and practice which determines the purpose of this work in the specified format.  The methodological basis of the study is formed by the provisions of the activity paradigm, The article also uses the results of a large-scale sociological survey conducted as part of the research project “Civic patriotism in the formation and development of solidaristic practices in the south of Russia: resource potential and conditions for its implementation”. The study concludes that one of the reasons for little involvement of south-Russian youth in patriotic activity is that the patriotic ideas translated at the level of patriotic value formation by such agents as family, educational institutions, government agencies, and the media diverge from the youth’s orientation on the content of patriotic practices involving different agents and institutes.

The remaining missionary task in South Africa This article is based on the results of a research project of the Institute for Missiological Research at the University of Pretoria which was recently concluded. The author and a team of co-workers researched practically the whole of South Africa in an endeavour to describe the contemporary situation of its population and the unfinished task of the church. The understanding of the missionary task which formed the basis of this project, and a sample of the kind of results obtained are illustrated in this article by means of 12 representative or typical scenarios which together indicate the dimensions of the future task for the South African church.
