• W2337175719 abstract "ON BLACK SOUTH AFRICANS, BLACK AMERICANS, AND BLACK WEST INDIANS: SOME THOUGHTS ON WE WANT WHAT'S OURSWE WANT WHAT'S OURS: LEARNING FROM SOUTH AFRICA'S LAND RESTITUTION PROGRAM. By Bernadette Atuahene. Oxford and New York: Oxford University Press. 2014. Pp. viii, 198. $42.50.Most modern constitutions have eminent domain provisions that mandate just compensation for forced deprivations of land and require such deprivations to be for a public use or public purpose.1 The Takings Clause is a classic example of such a provision.2 The literature is essentially focused on outlining outer boundaries within which state can take property from an owner.3 But there are other that have been deemed extraordinary; in such circumstances, state takes away property without just compensation and simultaneously makes a point about a person or a group's standing in community of citizens.4As Yale Law professor and leading scholar on property, Carol Rose, has noted, such typically accompany historical moments of great upheaval, such as wars, revolutions, or social unrest, and involve a complete reconfiguration of property rights.5 In American context, for example, consider property from British loyalists, Native Americans, and Confederate slaveholders.6 The point was to express society's disapproval of groups deemed outsider or disloyal.7 More recently, destruction of Black Wall Street in 1921 Tulsa, Oklahoma race riots signified such a taking-government stood passively by while white thugs destroyed virtually every black-owned property in business district.8 The point was clear: uppity blacks were not welcome in business of capitalism-at least not as owners. Rose quite rightly notes that extraordinary often signal more terrible things to come. In Tulsa, several black citizens were brutally butchered shortly after destruction, which still stands as most murderous race riot of twentieth century.9For Rose, quintessential example of such an extraordinary taking is confiscation of Jewish property in Nazi-occupied Europe.10 Take Kristallnacht, or the night of broken glass, in Germany in 193711: German citizens, working alongside Nazi-affiliated thugs, destroyed property of Jewish citizens, with nary an intervention from German police.12 By time night was over, German citizens had destroyed homes and synagogues of Jewish citizens and thoroughly looted Jewish stores. Their clear objective was to terrorize Jewish citizens-the unspeakable began shortly thereafter.Bernadette Atuahene's We Want What's Ours: Learning from South Africa's Land Restitution Program13 is an extraordinary contribution to literature on extraordinary takings. Building on Rose's work, Atuahene argues that these are undertheorized (p. 23). Atuahene's concept of takings sheds light on this literature (p. 3). She appropriates metaphor of from Ralph Ellison's novel of same name,14 in which an unnamed African American man is deemed invisible. Atuahene argues that taking of property and dignity deems persons invisible (pp. 30-31). This effect is especially pronounced when confiscation of property is used to dehumanize and subjugate citizens within- or remove them entirely from-the social contract (pp. 24-29).In Part I, I summarize key facets of Atuahene's argument, with a particular concentration on her concepts of dignitary and propertyinduced invisibility. In Part II, I emphasize that Atuahene's focus on displacement of people of color-including blacks, Indians, and coloreds- in Gauteng and Western Cape provinces of South Africa echoes Rose's discussion of German Jews of Kristallnacht. Not only real property, but dignity, was taken in both of these processes. But Atuahene's notion of dignity takings, while an excellent academic contribution, might also be applied to more difficult cases of potential from those who now constitute majority of poor South Africans-that is, South Africans who never had even quasi-formal relationships with land. …" @default.
