Alexander's writings engage with some of the important debates in South Africa from the last 50 years, many of which have international resonance today. An opponent of the neoliberal trajectory embarked upon by the post-apartheid establishment in the 1990s, Alexander was always reflective and humble but never wavered from his own self-description: a non-dogmatic Marxist, pan-Africanist, and internationalist. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e This carefully curated collection brings his incredible body of work to an international audience for the first time. It features a comprehensive introduction, a timeline of key events in the life of Alexander, selected articles, speeches, op-eds, book chapters, and a bibliography of his writings. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eNeville Alexander\u003c\/b\u003e was a revolutionary scholar, educator, and activist in the struggles against apartheid and in post-apartheid South Africa.
