The key elements of apartheid are not unique: spatial segregation by race/ethnicity; mechanisms to control the movements of members of the indigenous people now deemed non-citizens of the new nation-state; military occupation and violent suppression of protest; and denial of citizenship and voting rights to the disadvantaged group in order to prevent them from using electoral means to effect change.

    The London School of Economics and Political Science Disinvestment? Out of the question. Managing German business subsidiaries in apartheid South Africa during the tenure of P.W. Botha, 1978-1989 Gaurav Pratap Sud A thesis submitted to the Department of International History of the London School of Economics and Political Science for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy, London, February 2021 1 DECLARATION I certify that the thesis I have presented for examination for the MPhil/PhD degree of the London School of Economics and Political Science is solely my own work other than where I have clearly indicated that it is the work of others (in which case the extent of any work carried out jointly by me and any other person is clearly identified in it). The copyright of this thesis rests with the author. Quotation from it is permitted, provided that full acknowledgement is made. This thesis may not be reproduced without my prior written consent. I warrant that this authorisation does not, to the best of my belief, infringe the rights of any third party. I declare that my thesis consists of 101,942 words. 2 ABSTRACT This thesis re-evaluates the case for business disinvestment from South Africa during the tenure of P.W. Botha (1978-1989). Using neglected corporate archives as well as oral testimony by former directors, the thesis scrutinizes the decision-making processes employed by the outlier on disinvestment – German business. Through seven case studies, the thesis illustrates how Apartheid policies, rather than being the foundation for business success, were the originators of enduring financial and operational woes.

  • South Africa's Relations with Gabon and the Ivory Coast
    South Africa’s relations with Gabon and the Ivory Coast: 1969-1994 Emmanuel NDZENG NYANGONE Dissertation presented for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy (History) at the University of Stellenbosch Promoter: Professor Albert M. Grundlingh March 2008 Declaration I, the undersigned, hereby declare that the work contained in this dissertation is my own original work and that I have not previously in its entirety or in part submitted it at any university for a degree. Signature:…………………………………… Date:………………………………. Copyright © 2007 Stellenbosch University All rights reserved Abstract Security (war or peace), economy, technological progress, cultural development and issues of identity are some of the aspects that characterise the nature of relations between countries. Traditionally, the objectives of a country’s foreign policy concern security and welfare. But, the search for national prestige, for autonomy or for a change in the world’s power relationships or ideological re-orientation can all inform the foreign policies of many states.1 South Africa is no exception; during the stewardship of Prime Minister BJ Vorster, his objective was the launching of a policy of détente. As a consequence, South Africa was subjected to continuous external criticism. At the insistence of the discrimination apartheid policy, South Africa was excluded from a wide range of intergovernmental agencies and conferences, was isolated by the international community and became the object of an economic boycott by the vast majority of African states. It therefore was clear that the increasing hostility towards South Africa’s domestic policy would isolate the country further. The world’s reaction to South African’s domestic policy demonstrated that foreign opinion had an influence on domestic policy, and that it imposed constraints on the conduct of foreign policy.

  • Comment Two Fronts of Anti-Apartheid Struggle: South Africa and Canada
    Comment Two fronts of anti-apartheid struggle: South Africa and Canada John S Saul [email protected] Having been, for most of my adult life, a student of southern African, including South African, affairs, I was pleased but also intrigued to receive an invitation from Ingrid Fiske and the South African Association of Canadian Studies to come to South Africa to give several talks and seminars in this country. This included a public lecture on the topic presented in this essay – an essay which explores both the collaboration between Canada and South Africa in support of apartheid, as well as the much more savoury links established between (many) Canadians and (most) South Africans in resistance to that system. Let us first explore the former of these two possible emphases. 1 There are, to begin with, obvious parallels between the two countries, not least the fact that both Canada and South Africa, as we know them, were outcomes of Western European imperial conquest. True, the histories were somewhat different. In Canada, the indigenous societies – some agrarian- based and others premised on hunting, trapping and a more nomadic existence – were an easy target for something very close to quasi-genocide for much of our early history, and then an extreme form of marginalisation more recently. On the other hand, in South Africa, at least beyond the Cape, the large and more firmly settled and grounded indigenous African populations were less vulnerable to any such ‘final solution’. Instead, here, whites – when not killing blacks and driving them off the most economically promising land – became adept, as we know all too well, at availing themselves, to the advantage of the white-dominated economy, of the labour of such indigenes.
