The Harold Wolpe Memorial Trust is working in collaboration with others to publish three books (provisional titles):

 

The land question in South Africa, edited by Ruth Hall and Lungisile Ntsebeza

The idea for this publication emerged out of the land conference held in March 2004. With contributions from various participants at the conference, the publication aims to map out the debates surrounding land reform and redistribution in South Africa. The book, to be published by the HSRC press in 2006, will be targeted at the general public.

 

Volume of essays on the work of Harold Wolpe, edited by Henry Bernstein

A number of academics and intellectuals have been invited to contribute to a publication which addresses issues that were raised by Michael Burawoy in the 2004 memorial lecture. The publication, which is being edited by Professor Henry Bernstein and which will be published in 2006, will be targeted at academics in higher education institutions.

 

Social structure, state and national liberation: The intellectual legacy of Harold Wolpe, edited by Saleem Badat

This publication will reproduce a selection of Harold Wolpe's writings across a number of themes. The book will also include commentaries on these texts by key academics, with a specific focus on their contemporary significance. As a sociological text, this book will be targeted at academics in higher education institutions, and should be published by Unisa Press in 2006.
