ОглавлениеExplanatory Notes and Common Abbreviations
My use of the term ‘African’ to mean ‘black African’ is not intended to imply that South Africans of other races have any less claim to being Africans. Since the term ‘non-white’ is still widely regarded as offensive, the book uses ‘black’ as the collective term for African, coloured and Indian people. Other authors sometimes use ‘black’ to refer to Africans only.
References to the Survey in the end notes are to the annual yearbook of the Institute of Race Relations (IRR), a publication that has been in print since 1946.
References to Fast Facts are to the IRR’s monthly bulletin, which has been produced since 1991, while references to @Liberty are to the IRR’s policy bulletin, an occasional publication launched in February 2014.
