Nicky Falkof looks at how risk, anxiety and moral panic show up in media portrayals in modern South Africa. She investigates four case studies: the far right myth of 'white genocide'; so-called 'Satanist' murders of young women; an urban legend about township crime; and social theories about safety and goodness in the suburbs.
