摘要

因为塞迪贝似乎“接受了政权”。对易卜拉欣来说,塞迪贝的行为是“背叛,具有深刻的破坏性”(217)。也许正是易卜拉欣的背叛经历让他不愿对今天困扰非国大的问题发表评论。在《超越恐惧》的结论中,他回忆起在罗本岛,非国大领导人如何讨论成为“坚决反对腐败、派系斗争和纪律不良的人民的仆人”(284)。尽管易卜拉欣承认“这些价值观已经被侵蚀”,但他的回忆录并没有说明这种侵蚀是如何发生的(285)。他对非国大堕落的看法是有价值的,尤其是因为他与雅各布·祖马关系密切。但正如Kasrils回忆的那样,易卜拉欣“不喜欢公开发声[…],而是在运动内部和同志们面前。”。就是那种忠诚。这种忠诚渗透在这本书中,也渗透到易卜拉欣令人印象深刻的情感和身体毅力中,使他能够忍受禁令、流放、监禁和酷刑。但这种忠诚也限制了这本书对学者的效用。虽然《超越恐惧》为我们深入了解一位南非自由战士的生活经历提供了宝贵的见解,但它并没有让我们远远超越南非政治史的现有前沿。可能有。

because it seemed that Sedibe ‘had bought into the regime’. For Ebrahim, Sedibe’s actions were ‘betrayal, on a profound and destructive level’ (217). Perhaps it is Ebrahim’s experience with betrayal that makes him reluctant to comment on problems afflicting the ANC today. In the conclusion to Beyond Fear, he recalls how on Robben Island ANC leaders discussed being ‘servants of the people [that] were steadfastly against corruption, factionalism and ill-discipline’ (284). Though Ebrahim concedes ‘these values have become eroded’, his memoir gives no sense of how this erosion occurred (285). His views on the ANC’s degeneration would be valuable, especially because of his closeness to Jacob Zuma. But as Kasrils recalls, Ebrahim ‘didn’t like to raise his voice publicly [...] but rather within the movement and to comrades. It was that kind of loyalty’. This loyalty permeates the book and, with it, the impressive emotional and physical fortitude Ebrahim possessed that enabled him to endure banning, exile, imprisonment, and torture. But this loyalty also limits the book’s utility for scholars. While it affords valuable insight into the lived experiences of a South African freedom fighter, Beyond Fear does not take us far beyond the existing frontiers of South Africa’s political history. It might have.

期刊介绍: Over the past 40 years, the South African Historical Journal has become renowned and internationally regarded as a premier history journal published in South Africa, promoting significant historical scholarship on the country as well as the southern African region. The journal, which is linked to the Southern African Historical Society, has provided a high-quality medium for original thinking about South African history and has thus shaped - and continues to contribute towards defining - the historiography of the region.
