“…48 The struggle waged in South Africa by performing and arts practitioners and scholars for recognition of their creations as 'research publications' is a case in point. 49 For them, research is lived in the performance -not necessarily of the Self, but through the text and in bodily expression.…”

Indeterminacy, Indigeneity, Peer Review and the Mind–Body Problem

Peer review is discussed from the perspective of different ways of making sense, most specifically, Immanuel’s Kant’s statement on the indeterminacy of radical translation. Ontological differences are examined with specific examples illustrating actual contestations, with some instances invoking indigeneity and self-knowing. The veracity of claims of racism and exclusion by allegedly hegemonic Western-dominated editorial boards of scientific journals is examined. Positivism is contrasted with relational thinking and just where ‘the body’ fits into scientific practice is discussed. Paradigm and paradigm shift as constituting the rules of peer engagement is proposed. The method is an autoethnographic one that draws on the author’s own experience as a journals’ editor analysing peer review issues via the prism of Western philosophy on the one hand, and the Subject-Object integration of indigenous knowledge systems (IKS) postulates on the other. Conspiracy theories are questioned and the conclusion is that both determinacies (Cartesian and IKS) need to generate new insights via dialectical engagements.

“…The reorganization of the tertiary sector by the new government placed new responsibilities on disciplinary associations, including curriculum issues, regionalization (Jordaan, 2004), assessment criteria, outcomes and the rating of researchers by the National Research Foundation (see, for example, Hauptfleisch, 2005). SACOMM is engaged in all of these sites and is now also actively shaping the fields it represents in the ways in which its conferences are organized, and in conducting plenary sessions on methodological and epistemological issues.…”

A discussion of the history of journalism and mass communication studies, in relation to its alter ego, media studies, provides the backdrop to an analysis of the role played by the South African Communication Association (SACOMM) during the 1980s and after apartheid, up to 2006. The central argument is that SACOMM was criss-crossed by a particular kind of internal family argument in which specific contradictions were being negotiated: (1) pro-apartheid vs anti-apartheid (during the 1980s); (2) realists vs idealists; and (3) communication science vs media studies. The way these antagonisms had been negotiated by 2006 provides some insight into the way that media studies assisted in internationalizing the association and in exposing communication science to other paradigms.

Decolonising African Theatre

Decolonisation can be pursued in different ways. After many years of developing a critical language to engage coloniality, the most urgent need in African theatre is to develop new theories and methods in our manufactories. This Element uses Afroscenology as a theory to read and comment on African theatre. The Element particularly focuses on the history of laboratories in which it was tested and emerged, the historicization of rombic theatre and the crafting of a theory of the playtext which has been named theatric theory to distinguish it from the Aristotelian dramatic theory. The second dimension of the theory is the performatic technique. This Element also explain Afrosonic mime through examples drawn from the workshops conducted in training performers.
