  • Doornkop, May 1900
    Second Doornkop, May 1900 Four years later the British were back at Doornkop. That is, if one presumes the Rhodesian raiders, acting in the private interest of Rhodes and his fellow conspirators to overthrow the ZAR government, were “British”; and if one assumes a rather loose definition of the battlefield to be described. Fig 62: Boers in the field, this group at Spioenkop in the Natal Colony. Fig 63: British troops take aim, this photo taken at Colesberg in the Cape Colony. Pics: ABWM. May 1900 was towards the end of the first year of war. The South African War, also known as the Second or Anglo Boer War had started badly for Britain with a series of setbacks in October and November 1899 that saw British forces besieged at Ladysmith, Kimberley as well as Mafekeng and followed by Black Week, a series of calamities in the Cape and Natal during December 1899: Stormberg (10 December), Magersfontein (11 December) and Colenso (15 December). Over the New Year the British had recovered their posture and early in the year they had launched a general counter-offensive in both the Cape and Natal. By March Bloemfontein had fallen and Imperial forces were poised to move on the ZAR, which they reached in May. “Second Doornkop”, is a controversial battle, one which several writers have condemned as unnecessary. Field Marshal Lord Michael Carver writes in The National Army Museum Book of the Boer War that Lt Gen Ian Hamilton “engaged in what many thought a needlessly direct frontal attack. 95 ” Pakenham goes further saying the attack, when made, took some of its observers aback: “Then to the surprise of one of the brigadiers, (Maj Gen Hutton) and one of the correspondents (Churchill), Hamilton launched his two infantry brigades on a four mile wide frontal attack on the ridge.” 96 Both statements need interrogation; suffice to say the attack forms an integral part of the greater battle of Johannesburg that took place over two days in late May 1900.

  • Class, Race and Gender Amongst White Volunteers, 1939-1953
    From War to Workplace: Class, Race and Gender amongst White Volunteers, 1939-1953 By Neil Roos Submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Department of History in the Faculty of Human and Social Sciences at the University of North West Supervisor: Dr. Tim Clynick Mafikeng, North West Province August 2001 To Dick Abstract Through a case study of the war and post-war experiences of those who volunteered to serve in the Second World War, the thesis explores aspects of the social and cultural history of white men in South Africa. The thesis begins from the premise that class and ethnicity, the major binary categories conventionally used to explain developments in white South African society, are unable to account for the history of white men who volunteered to serve in the Second World War. It argues that the history of these volunteers is best understood in the context of racist culture, which can be defined as an evolving consensus amongst whites in South Africa on the political, social and cultural primacy of whiteness. It argues that, when the call to arms came in 1939, it was answered mainly by white men from those little traditions incorporated politically into the segregationist colonial order, largely through the explicit emphases of white privilege and the cultural hegemony of whiteness. Their decision to enlist was underscored by an awareness that volunteering entailed a set of rights and duties, which centred on their expectations of post-war "social justice." Chapter three examines some of the highly idealised and implicitly racialised ways in which, during wartime, white troops expanded their understanding of social justice.

  • History 1886
    How many bones must you bury before you can call yourself an African? Updated December 2009 A South African Diary: Contested Identity, My Family - Our Story Part D: 1886 - 1909 Compiled by: Dr. Anthony Turton [email protected] Caution in the use and interpretation of these data This document consists of events data presented in chronological order. It is designed to give the reader an insight into the complex drivers at work over time, by showing how many events were occurring simultaneously. It is also designed to guide future research by serious scholars, who would verify all data independently as a matter of sound scholarship and never accept this as being valid in its own right. Read together, they indicate a trend, whereas read in isolation, they become sterile facts devoid of much meaning. Given that they are “facts”, their origin is generally not cited, as a fact belongs to nobody. On occasion where an interpretation is made, then the commentator’s name is cited as appropriate. Where similar information is shown for different dates, it is because some confusion exists on the exact detail of that event, so the reader must use caution when interpreting it, because a “fact” is something over which no alternate interpretation can be given. These events data are considered by the author to be relevant, based on his professional experience as a trained researcher. Own judgement must be used at all times . All users are urged to verify these data independently. The individual selection of data also represents the author’s bias, so the dataset must not be regarded as being complete.

  • The Role and Application of the Union Defence Force in the Suppression of Internal Unrest, 1912 - 1945
    THE ROLE AND APPLICATION OF THE UNION DEFENCE FORCE IN THE SUPPRESSION OF INTERNAL UNREST, 1912 - 1945 Andries Marius Fokkens Thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Military Science (Military History) at the Military Academy, Saldanha, Faculty of Military Science, Stellenbosch University. Supervisor: Lieutenant Colonel (Prof.) G.E. Visser Co-supervisor: Dr. W.P. Visser Date of Submission: September 2006 ii Declaration I, the undersigned, hereby declare that the work contained in this thesis is my own original work and that I have not previously submitted it, in its entirety or in part, to any university for a degree. Signature:…………………….. Date:………………………….. iii ABSTRACT The use of military force to suppress internal unrest has been an integral part of South African history. The European colonisation of South Africa from 1652 was facilitated by the use of force. Boer commandos and British military regiments and volunteer units enforced the peace in outlying areas and fought against the indigenous population as did other colonial powers such as France in North Africa and Germany in German South West Africa, to name but a few. The period 1912 to 1945 is no exception, but with the difference that military force was used to suppress uprisings of white citizens as well. White industrial workers experienced this military suppression in 1907, 1913, 1914 and 1922 when they went on strike. Job insecurity and wages were the main causes of the strikes and militant actions from the strikers forced the government to use military force when the police failed to maintain law and order.
