The State and the South African University System under Apartheid.
Davies, John
Comparative Education, v32 n3 p319-32 Nov 1996
Examines the role of the state in South African university affairs during the apartheid era (1948-90). Suggests that interactions between the state and universities were more volatile than is generally portrayed in the literature and were especially so during the 1980s when the state struggled unsuccessfully to overcome popular challenges to White domination. Contains 42 references. (Author/SV)
