This book captures the rationale for the perceptions of black African youth based in urban and rural areas on the present revival of the of circumcision rite in KwaZulu-Natal. lt explores the role media as the contemporary socialisation strategy especially when it comes to inculcating a consumer-oriented agenda, in particular the circumcision rite as the antidote for curbing communicable diseases, as well as the revival of the Zulu culture. It reveals the degree of alienation of black African youth from understanding themselves and their cultural value systems, as well as their historical background such as the circumcision ritual and the rationale behind its practise. However, it offers some alternatives to the present limitations on indigenous African cultural values systems in general.
