Apartheid had a devastating impact on the entire §social and political climate in South Africa. §However, South African women were severely affected §by the extreme, harsh policies to such an extent §that in post-apartheid South Africa, many of the §African people who participated in this study §reflect, nothing has changed. This monograph §provides a concise exploration of the changing §structures in the social organization in Eastern §Cape South Africa. Focusing on the target §population, Xhosa women who live in rural §communities, Dr. Jones explores the cultural and §political historical landscape in post-apartheid §society. Utilizing cross-disciplinary approaches, §including standard anthropological research methods, §such as ethnographic oral histories, surveys, and §gender analysis, she conceptualizes the attributing §socio-political factors affecting the mental and §physical health conditions amongst the women and §their families. Theoretical models, that is, Selyean §stress theory, dependency theories, and social §support/buffer theories are used to interpret the §data obtained during fieldwork.
