  • Description: Available data on the toxicity of nanoparticles is a subject of controversy. The interaction of nanoparticles with biological systems including living cells has become one of the most urgent areas of collaborative research in materials science and biology. This is due to the fact that toxicity of nanomaterials are ill defined in terms of cause–effect relationships.

  • Description: Debates about the structures and processes of globalisation - along with those of localisation - have important implications for the discipline (or is it still a field?) of media studies. The first implication, framed as a counter-hegemonic resistance to what some might consider to be the totalising tradition of Western media studies scholarship, is that we can no longer continue to look only to Western centres of academe for intellectual edification. The need for a critical deconstruction of Euro-American intellectual centrism, and the need for recognising and thus reconstructing a truly transcultural onto-epistemological agenda for media studies, has become more urgent than ever before.

  • Description: I have been studying in Grahamstown for five years and I now consider Grahamstown my second home. It has been fairly easy for me to settle here given the fact that Rhodes University is home to many Zimbabwe-an students and academic personnel. Diverse cultures merge in this town, giving it a cosmopolitan feel. Although seemingly far from Gra-hamstown, Zimbabwe gets a lot of representation from different media organisations.

Interested? I'll say!".

In the last 10 years Review has been charting the even more complex journey into freedom.

  • Description: I was driving down the N2 from Cape Town towards the airport recently and scanning the turn-offs for Vanguard Drive, when suddenly I noticed among the shacks that line the road some really interesting buildings. These were not the pale pink matchboxes that periodically spring up in rows alongside the derelict housing that millions of South Africans call home. They were multi-levelled, had large windows and looked like an architect might have had something to do with them. I was heartened at the sight of housing – at last – with humanity in mind. But as I reread the 2010 pieces in this edition, I’m reminded by Jane Duncan in particular (“Whose World Cup?” page 23) that prettifying the ghastly spaces in our world cup cities that will be visible to those international tourists is high on the agenda for our government. But then, I reason, at least someone will benefit from living along the noisy and congested airport route!.

  • Description: If you've been a Rhodes Journalism Review reader for a while, you'll be surprised by the smaller magazine you are holding in your hands right now. RJR started off life as an A4 but has been big since no 9, December 1994, and the size I inherited when I started as editor in 1997. It's a format I've always loved; it stands (er, stood) out among the wash of pamphlets at international conferences, it gave designers and photographers a fantastic sweep of canvas, and it was distinctive in the world of magazines, a true original.

  • Description: When Grocott's Mail in Grahamstown wanted to use the Hector Pieterson photograph for the front cover of a Youth Day supplement celebrating the courage of the Soweto students of 1976, they decided to go the official route by contacting the photographer's agent and paying for the picture. They were told a single use would cost them thousands of rands. Obviously an impossibility for a small-town, community newspaper.
