  • Music and Militarisation During the Period of the South African Border War (1966-1989): Perspectives from Paratus
    Music and Militarisation during the period of the South African Border War (1966-1989): Perspectives from Paratus Martha Susanna de Jongh Dissertation presented for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences at Stellenbosch University Supervisor: Professor Stephanus Muller Co-supervisor: Professor Ian van der Waag December 2020 Stellenbosch University https://scholar.sun.ac.za Declaration By submitting this dissertation electronically, I declare that the entirety of the work contained therein is my own, original work, that I am the sole author thereof (unless to the extent explicitly otherwise stated), that reproduction and publication thereof by Stellenbosch University will not infringe any third party rights and that I have not previously in its entirety or in part submitted it for obtaining any qualification. Date: 29 July 2020 Copyright © 2020 Stellenbosch University All rights reserved i Stellenbosch University https://scholar.sun.ac.za Abstract In the absence of literature of the kind, this study addresses the role of music in militarising South African society during the time of the South African Border War (1966-1989). The War on the border between Namibia and Angola took place against the backdrop of the Cold War, during which the apartheid South African government believed that it had to protect the last remnants of Western civilization on the African continent against the communist onslaught. Civilians were made aware of this perceived threat through various civilian and military channels, which included the media, education and the private business sector. The involvement of these civilian sectors in the military resulted in the increasing militarisation of South African society through the blurring of boundaries between the civilian and the military.

  • The SA Army: Mandate, Activities, Main Equipment and Key Personalities
    Chapter 9 The SA Army: mandate, activities, main equipment and key personalities The SA Army was established just after midnight on the morning of April 27, 1994 as the senior Service of the new SA National Defence Force. Its seniority derives not as much from history but from the Defence Act, 42 of 2004, which in Section 12(1) lists the SA Army first, followed by the SA Air Force, SA Navy and the SA Military Health Service, thereby setting an order of precedence. For reasons of history and geography what is now the SA Army has always been the largest Service – and will remain that way. The geo-economics of the continent has always suggested to the Navy that South Africa has an island economy, with most of its trade with partners across the sea. As a result, they have always advocated the need for a strong navy. Understandable, of course – even though the Germans and Japanese excepted (the first during both world wars, the latter during the last) – there has never been a significant threat to that trade. For South Africa, the threat has always been on land – for successive colonial/white governments the “black peril”, for the present incumbents, the peril instability poses for development. What is the mandate of the SA Army? The mandate of the SA Army is • to provide combat-ready land forces for – o the pursuance of national defence and the prevention of war, failing which, to jointly and preferably multi-nationally, swiftly and decisively achieve national security goals; and o collaboratively promoting peace and stability internally and externally in concurrence with international obligations; and • to contribute to the development and upliftment of South Africa, its people, and the African continent.

Ford* This Article attempts to assess the experiences of post-apartheidSouth Africa in the realm of national security law by examining key issues from constitutional, statutory, and policy perspectives. It observes that South Africans now have a great "window of opportunity" that allows them to establish the habits and mores necessary to a working security oversight regime, and argues that the way in which South Africa strikes a balance between the requirements of nationalsecurity and the preservation of personal liberties is of enormous importance to the Republic's future. It further contends that South Africa's choices in this arena could have significant implications and/or hold important lessons for other democracies aroundthe world.

  • South African Defence Review 1998 Introduction Aim and Focus of the Defence Review 1
    Chapter 1 South African Defence Review 1998 Introduction Aim and Focus of the Defence Review 1. In May 1996 the Minister of Defence presented to Parliament the White Paper on National Defence for the Republic of South Africa. Parliament approved the document, with strong support expressed by all political parties. 2. The overarching theme of the White Paper is the transformation of defence policy and the South African National Defence Force (SANDF) in the light of the momentous political and strategic developments which have occurred at national, regional and international levels following the demise of the Cold War and the ending of apartheid. 3. At national level these developments include the establishment of a democratic government; the introduction of the Reconstruction and Development Programme (RDP) to address poverty and socio-economic inequality; the policy of national unity and reconciliation; and the adoption of a new Constitution which outlaws discrimination, enshrines fundamental human rights and lays thebasis for democratic civil-military relations. 4. After two and a half decades of isolation, South Africa has been welcomed back into the international community and has joined a host of important regional and international bodies. South Africa now engages in defence co-operation with a number of countries and participates in regional security arrangements under the auspices of the Southern African Development Community (SADC). 5. In the light of these developments and the integration of the former statutory and non-statutory forces, the challenge of transformation is substantial and complex. The White Paper addresses this challenge at the level of broad policy. It establishes a policy framework and the main principles of defence in our new democracy.
