- W2011308105 abstract "This article examines the phenomenon known as the relevance debate in South African psychology. It begins with a historical overview of the contours of the discipline in that country before describing the controversy's international dimensions, namely, the revolutionary politics of 1960s higher education and the subsequent emergence of cognate versions of the debate in American, European, and Third World psychology. The article then details how South Africa's relevance project enjoyed a special affinity with an assortment of ethnic-cultural, national, and continental myths and metaphors, all of which served the interests of the political formations of the day. It discusses how, in present-day South Africa, the intelligentsia has become an important catalyst for the so-called African Renaissance, which seeks to provide relevant solutions for the regeneration of African society. However, the global hegemony of what began in the 1970s as a second academic revolution, aided by the lifting of the academic boycott of South Africa, has blunted the once critical edge of relevance discourse. A new mode of knowledge production now holds sway, the outcome of a dramatic reformulation of the capitalist manifesto in which the values of the May 68 generation have been hijacked by a managerialist rationality. In light of the capitalization of the knowledge-production enterprise, it is concluded that the idiom of relevance has outlived its usefulness." @default.
