Introduction / sitemap
This website contains a range of manuscripts, articles, databases, teaching notes etc. mainly dealing with South African history and social science.
The content represents a selection of my research during recent years at the Centre of African Studies, University of Copenhagen and at the Nordic Africa Institute in Uppsala with a focus on South African historiography.
An updated version of Internet Explorer will show these pages best. However, due to my use of frames, it may be a good idea to use the function, compatibility view. Some other browsers
may not be able to show all PP-presentations or PDF-files.
I hope that these resources will be useful to colleagues and students.

Databases, Queries:
Most of my personal research databases were built in FileMaker. When my home PC functions as a server, you will be able to access some of my databases online through FileMaker Instant Web Publishing. Sometimes, however, it will only be possible to access a few static searches selected after subject. In due course the following databases will be put on the web:
LitSA: This database is my main research database. It contains more than 6000 partly annotated references dealing with South African history and historiography, development research, literature on Africa, study technique etc.
ContAcad: List containing contact informaton on 1000 academic institutions / individuals relevant for research in South African history and social science.
SAyears: Chronological list of events in South African history including race legislation.
SAshort: List of abbreviations for organisations, political parties, institutions etc.
SAwords: Explanations of words, concepts etc.
ResFund: Database containing information on scholarships, grants and other kinds of research funding.
LitProf: References to non-fiction general literature on history, politics, economics etc.
Some of the datatables will require user name and password. Some will serve as blogs in the sence that they will be open for direct online commenting. Most information will be in Danish.
