( The National Committee for The National Committee for Liberation ("ARM"), 1960- 1964 Sabotage and the Question of the Ideological Subject Andries du Toit Thesis submitted in fulfillment of the requirements for the M.A. degree in History at the University of Cape Town For my Parents "All of us are living and thinking subjects. What I react against is the fact that there is a breach between social history and the history of ideas. Social historians are supposed to describe how people act without thinking, and historians of ideas are supposed to describe how people think without acting. Everybody both thinks and acts." Michel Foucault "To articulate the past historically does not mean to recognize it 'the way it really was' (Ranke). It means to seize hold of a memory as it flashes up at a moment of danger." Walter Benjamin Abstract Title The National Committee for Liberation ("ARM") 1960 - 1964: sabotage and the question of the ideological subject. Subject Matter The dissertation gives an account of the history of the National Committee for Liberation (NCL), an anti- apartheid sabotage organisation that existed between 1960 and 1964. The study is aimed both at narrating its growth and development in the context of South Africa in the 1950s and 1960s, and explaining its strategic and political choices. In particular, the reasons for its isolation from the broader struggle against Apartheid and its inability to transcend this isolation are investigated. Sources Discussion of the context of the NCL's development depended on secondary historical works by scholars such as Tom Lodge, Paul Rich, C. J. Driver and Janet Robertson as well as archival sources. The analysis of liberal discourse in the 1950s and 1960s also drew heavily on primary sources such as the liberal journals Contact, Africa South and The New African. Secondary sources were also used for the discussion of the NCL's strategy in the context of the development of a theory of revolutionary guerilla warfare after the Second World War: here the work of Robert Taber, John Bowyer Bell, Kenneth Grundy and Edward Feit was central. The history of the NCL itself was reconstructed from trial records, newspapers and personal interviews. Archival sources such as The Karis-Carter collection, the Hoover Institute microfilm collection of South African political documents, the Paton Papers, the Ernie Wentzel papers were also extensively used. Methodology The discussion of the discourse of liberal NCL members depended on a post-structuralist theory of subjectivity. The conceptual underpinnings of the thesis were provided by on the work of Jacques Lacan, Louis Althusser, Michel Pcheux, Ernesto Laclau, Chantal Mouffe and Slavoj Zizek. P~cheux's elaboration of the Althusserian concept of interpellation formed the basis of a discourse analysis of NCL texts. In the interviews, some use was also made of techniques of ethnographic interviewing developed by qualitative sociologists such as James Spradley. Conclusions The analysis focused on the way NCL discourse constructed a NCL members as "ordinary persons", a subject-position which implied a radical opposition between political struggle and ideological commitment. The NCL's strategic difficulties were related to the contradictions this discourse, related to metropolitan political traditions that valorised civil society, manifested in the context of postSharpeville South Africa. These contradictions were explored in terms of the Lacanian notion of the "ideological fantasy". The dissertation thus closes with a consideration, both of the importance of the ideological traditions identified in the analysis of NCL discourse, and the methodological importance of non-reductive conceptualisations of political identity and ideology.

And you may ask yourself: Am I right?. Am I wrong'? And you may say to yourself: MY GOD. WA-.T HAVE I DONE? David Byrne, Once in a Lifetime In the pages that follow I have tried to tell the story of the National Committee for Liberation;t of how their moral and political concerns led to the decision to abandon non-violent, peaceful protest and to consider sabotage and armed insurrection, and how that choice led, eventually, to disaster and ruin for many of its members. In telling this story I have focused on NCLmembers' intentions, their hopes and the values that impelled them to turn to sabotage. But besides this I have also tried to show the broader discursive network which shaped these concerns and gave them their particular meaning. For although nothing seems more obvious than the feeling that we know ourselves and know what we think, this sense of self-prescnce, this belief that our own identities are transparently available to us, obscures the extent to which our intentions are shaped by a greater text, and hides the broader discursive frameworks that give us our positions as subjects, and install us in the places from which we survey the world. That is one way of telling the story. There are other ways. Certainly, when I set out to study the political thought and practice of liberal intellectuals after Sharpeville, I never suspected that I would end up focusing on the NCL/ARM to the extent that I did: that my course of research would lead me far from the archives and libraries of the University of Cape Town, to interview ex-saboteurs in England and Europe. Neither did I expect that my research would lead me to question many of my own assumptions about ideology and subjectivity; that my decision to move away from philosophy to history would eventually lead me back to philosophy, so that at the moment I do not belong comfortably or completely in either realm. In this preface, therefore, I hope to give an account of the process by which this thesis became a narrative of the history of the NCL/ARM, and how that narrative came to be so closely concerned vith the nature of ideological subjectivity. The fact that the name of this organisation changed front the National Committee for Liberation (NCL) to the African Resistance Movement IARIM) just before its demise may be a source of confusion. I have used the term "NCL/AR.M" "hen I refer to the entirety of the organisation's existence. from 1960 to 1964. When referring to it at any specific moment. I have used the name applicable during that time: i.e. "National Committee for Liberation" before June 1904 and "African Resistance Moveiment" thereafter. My own decision to move from the Department of Political Philosophy at the University of Stellenbosch to the Department of History at the University of Cape Town was in itself what Althusserians like to call an "overdetermined" event. In part it was motivated by practical considerations; in part to a growing sense that the Socratic tradition that informed the Department of Political Philosophy, a tradition that had sustained us as students in our commitment to philosophy, was being thrown increasingly into crisis by the events of the mid1980s. That critical intellectual and moral tradition, articulated above all by the Head of Department, prof. Johann Degenaar. had made the Department a crucial reference point for generations of students, and had turned it into an important base from which their own dissent and criticism of the Nationalist hegemony at Stellenbosch could be articulated, As that hegemony became less monolithic, and as a pluralist and reformist pragmatism started to replace the ideology articulated by Malan and Verwoerd. that critical tradition was itself placed in an ambiguous position.

  • Living History – the Story of Adderley Street's Flower
    LIVING HISTORY – THE STORY OF ADDERLEY STREET’S FLOWER SELLERS Lizette Rabe Department of Journalism, Stellenbosch University, Stellenbosch 7602 Lewende geskiedenis – die verhaal van Adderleystraat se blommeverkopers Kaapstad is waarskynlik sinoniem met Tafelberg. Maar een van die letterlik kleurryke tonele aan die voet van dié berg is waarskynlik eweneens sinoniem met die stad: Adderleystraat se “beroemde” blommeverkopers. Tog word hulle al minder, hoewel hulle deel van Kaapstad se lewende geskiedenis is en letterlik tot die Moederstad se kleurryke lewe bygedra het en ’n toerismebaken is. Waar kom hulle vandaan, en belangrik, wat is hulle toekoms? Dié beskrywende artikel binne die paradigma van mikrogeskiedenis is sover bekend ’n eerste sosiaal-wetenskaplike verkenning van die geskiedenis van dié unieke groep Kapenaars, die oorsprong van die blommemark en sy kleurryke blommenalatenskap. Sleutelwoorde: Adderleystraat; blommemark; blommeverkopers; Kaapstad; kultuurgeskiedenis; snyblomme; toerisme; veldblomme. Cape Town is probably synonymous with Table Mountain. But one of the colourful scenes at the foot of the mountain may also be described as synonymous with the city: Adderley Street’s “famous” fl ower market. Yet, although the fl ower sellers are part of Cape Town’s living history, a beacon for tourists, and literally contributes to the Mother City’s vibrant and colourful life, they represent a dying breed. Where do they come from, and more importantly, what is their future? This descriptive article within the paradigm of microhistory is, thus far known, a fi rst social scientifi c exploration of the history of this unique group of Capetonians, the origins of the fl ower market, and its fl ower legacy.

  • Evolution and Ambition in the Career of Jan Lievens (1607-1674)
    ABSTRACT Title: EVOLUTION AND AMBITION IN THE CAREER OF JAN LIEVENS (1607-1674) Lloyd DeWitt, Ph.D., 2006 Directed By: Prof. Arthur K. Wheelock, Jr. Department of Art History and Archaeology The Dutch artist Jan Lievens (1607-1674) was viewed by his contemporaries as one of the most important artists of his age. Ambitious and self-confident, Lievens assimilated leading trends from Haarlem, Utrecht and Antwerp into a bold and monumental style that he refined during the late 1620s through close artistic interaction with Rembrandt van Rijn in Leiden, climaxing in a competition for a court commission. Lievens’s early Job on the Dung Heap and Raising of Lazarus demonstrate his careful adaptation of style and iconography to both theological and political conditions of his time. This much-discussed phase of Lievens’s life came to an end in 1631when Rembrandt left Leiden. Around 1631-1632 Lievens was transformed by his encounter with Anthony van Dyck, and his ambition to be a court artist led him to follow Van Dyck to London in the spring of 1632. His output of independent works in London was modest and entirely connected to Van Dyck and the English court, thus Lievens almost certainly worked in Van Dyck’s studio. In 1635, Lievens moved to Antwerp and returned to history painting, executing commissions for the Jesuits, and he also broadened his artistic vocabulary by mastering woodcut prints and landscape paintings. After a short and successful stay in Leiden in 1639, Lievens moved to Amsterdam permanently in 1644, and from 1648 until the end of his career was engaged in a string of important and prestigious civic and princely commissions in which he continued to demonstrate his aptitude for adapting to and assimilating the most current style of his day to his own somber monumentality.
