  • South Africa-Violence-Fact Finding Mission Report-1990-Eng
    SIGNPOSTS TO PEACE An Independent Survey of the Violence in Natal, South Africa By The International Commission of Jurists SIGNPOSTS TO PEACE An Independent Survey of the Violence in Natal, South Africa By The International Commission of Jurists International Commission of Jurists (ICJ) Geneva, Switzerland Members of the Mission: John Macdonald Q.C. (United Kingdom) Christian Ahlund (Sweden) Jeremy Sarkin (South Africa) ttR-?-£P - 2'^a *S\G PREFACE The International Commission of Jurists, at the suggestion of many lawyers in South Africa, sent a mission to Natal at the end of August 1990 to investigate the rampant violence which has torn the Province apart for upwards of four years. Over a period of two weeks, the mission concentrated its efforts on developing an in-depth understanding of the violence which continues to plague Natal. Stringent time constraints did not permit them to investigate the situation in the Transvaal where the violence has now spread. The mission held meetingjs with a variety of organisations and individuals representing aE sides involved with the violence, as well as with independent monitors and observers. The mission met Government ministers Pik Botha (Foreign Affairs) and Adrian Vlok (Law and order) and talked with the African National Congress (ANQ leaders in Natal as-well as with Walter Sisulu oftheANCNationalExecutive Committee. They saw Chief MinisterButhelexi, who is the President oflnkatha and ChiefMinister ofKwa Zulu as well as the Pea Mtetwa, the Kwa Zulu Minister of Justice. In addition, they had discussions with the Attorney General of Natal and his deputies, The Regional Commissioner and other high ranking officers of the South African Police (SAP).

  • The Legacy of Inkosi Albert John Luthuli's Christian-Centred Political
    Faith and politics in the context of struggle: the legacy of Inkosi Albert John Luthuli’s Christian-centred political leadership Simangaliso Kumalo Ministry, Education & Governance Programme, School of Religion and Theology, University of KwaZulu-Natal, Pietermaritzburg, South Africa Abstract Albert John Mvumbi Luthuli, a Zulu Inkosi and former President-General of the African National Congress (ANC) and a lay-preacher in the United Congregational Church of Southern Africa (UCCSA) is a significant figure as he represents the last generation of ANC presidents who were opposed to violence in their execution of the struggle against apartheid in South Africa. He attributed his opposition to violence to his Christian faith and theology. As a result he is remembered as a peace-maker, a reputation that earned him the honour of being the first African to win the Nobel Peace Prize. Also central to Luthuli’s leadership of the ANC and his people at Groutville was democratic values of leadership where the voices of people mattered including those of the youth and women and his teaching on non-violence, much of which is shaped by his Christian faith and theology. This article seeks to examine Luthuli’s legacy as a leader who used peaceful means not only to resist apartheid but also to execute his duties both in the party and the community. The study is a contribution to the struggle of maintaining peace in the political sphere in South Africa which is marked by inter and intra party violence. The aim is to examine Luthuli’s legacy for lessons that can be used in a democratic South Africa.

  • “The Struggle for Survival:”* Adams College's Battle with the Bantu
    “The struggle for survival:”* Adams College’s battle with the Bantu Education Act Percy Ngonyama Honours Research Proposal, Department of Historical Studies University of KwaZulu-Natal Introduction “Adams was the home of inter-racial conferences and gatherings, and its school arrangements were made, not to exemplify apartheid, but to the glory of God. Therefore it became in the eyes of the government an ‘unnational school’, an alien institution, and therefore it had to go.”1 Subsequent to failed attempts to register as an independent school in the wake of the Bantu Education Act of 1953, on 02 December 1956, after more than a century of existence, Adams College, combining a high school, a music school, a teachers training college, and an industrial school, held its final assembly. When Adams reopened in January 1957, with most of the staff having left, including George Copeland Grant-principal of the College from 1949-1956,it had been renamed ‘Amanzimtoti Zulu College’, and was now under the authority of the Nationalist Party government’s department of Native Affairs’ Bantu Education subdivision. The process culminating in what must have been, for many, an extremely emotional occasion on December 02, had begun in 1949 with the constitution of the Eiselen Commission, headed by Dr W.W.M Eiselen- inspector of Native Education in the Transvaal Province- whose report, two years later, paved the way for the passing of the infamous Bantu Education Act, which was, inter alia, aimed at transferring education of the so-called “Bantu” from Missions, the main source of black education prior to the passing of the Bantu Education Act, to the department of Bantu Affairs.

  • List of Outstanding Trc Beneficiaries
    List of outstanding tRC benefiCiaRies JustiCe inVites tRC benefiCiaRies to CLaiM tHeiR finanCiaL RePaRations The Department of Justice and Constitutional Development invites individuals, who were declared eligible for reparation during the Truth and Reconciliation Commission(TRC), to claim their once-off payment of R30 000. These payments will be eff ected from the President Fund, which was established in accordance with the Promotion of National Unity and Reconciliation Act and regulations outlined by the President. According to the regulations the payment of the fi nal reparation is limited to persons who appeared before or made statements to the TRC and were declared eligible for reparations. It is important to note that as this process has been concluded, new applications will not be considered. In instance where the listed benefi ciary is deceased, the rightful next-of-kin are invited to apply for payment. In these cases, benefi ciaries should be aware that their relationship would need to be verifi ed to avoid unlawful payments. This call is part of government’s attempt to implement the approved TRC recommendations relating to the reparations of victims, which includes these once-off payments, medical benefi ts and other forms of social assistance, establishment of a task team to investigate the nearly 500 cases of missing persons and the prevention of future gross human rights violations and promotion of a fi rm human rights culture. In order to eff ectively implement these recommendations, the government established a dedicated TRC Unit in the Department of Justice and Constitutional Development which is intended to expedite the identifi cation and payment of suitable benefi ciaries.

They are part of the world’s material heritage, and part of history. Ever more of this postal heritage becomes available online, published by stamp collectors’ organizations, auction houses, commercial stamp shops, online catalogues, and individual collectors. Virtually collecting postage stamps and postal history has recently become a possibility. These working papers about Africa are examples of what can be done. But they are work-in-progress! Everyone who would like to contribute, by sending corrections, additions, and new area studies can do so by sending an email message to the APH editor: Ton Dietz ([email protected]). You are welcome!
