  • 2001 Lecture
    THE JAMES BACKHOUSE LECTURE 2001 RECONCILING OPPOSITES: REFLECTIONS ON PEACEMAKING IN SOUTH AFRICA Hendrik W van der Merwe The James Backhouse Lectures The lectures were instituted by Australia Yearly Meeting of the Religious Society of Friends (Quakers) on the its establishment of that Yearly Meeting in 1964. James Backhouse and his companion, George Washington Walker were English Friends who visited Australia from 1832 to 1838. They travelled widely, but spent most of their time in Tasmania. It was through their visit that Quaker Meetings were first established in Australia. Coming to Australia under a concern for the conditions of convicts, the two men had access to people with authority in the young colonies, and with influence in Britain, both in Parliament and in the social reform movement. In meticulous reports and personal letters, they made practical suggestions and urged legislative action on penal reform, on the rum trade, and on land rights and the treatment of Aborigines. James Backhouse was a general naturalist and a botanist. He made careful observations and published full accounts of what he saw, in addition to encouraging Friends in the colonies and following the deep concern that had brought him to Australia. Australian Friends hope that this series of Lectures will bring fresh insights into the Truth, and speak to the needs and aspirations of Australian Quakerism. This particular lecture was delivered in Melbourne on 8 January 2001, during the annual meeting of the Society.

  • A History of the Progressive Federal Party, 1981 - 1989
    STRUCTURAL CRISIS AND LIBERALISM: A HISTORY OF THE PROGRESSIVE FEDERAL PARTY, 1981 - 1989 DAVID SHANDLER Dissertation submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in the Department of Economic History, Faculty of Arts, University of Cape Town, January 1991 The copyright of this thesis vests in the author. No quotation from it or information derived from it is to be published without full acknowledgement of the source. The thesis is to be used for private study or non- commercial research purposes only. Published by the University of Cape Town (UCT) in terms of the non-exclusive license granted to UCT by the author. .ABSTRACT Whereas an extensive literature has developed on the broad conditions of crisis in South Africa in the seventies and eighties, and on the dynamic of state and popular responses to it, little focus has fallen .on the reactions . of the other key elements among the dominating classes. It is the aim of this dissertation to attempt to address an aspect of this lacuna by focussing on the Progressive Federal Party's responses from 1981 until 1989. The thesis develops an understanding of the period as one entailing conditions of organ.le crisis. It attempts to show the PFP' s behaviour in the context of structural and conjunctural crises. The thesis periodises the Party's policy and strategic responses and makes an effort to show its contradictory nature. An effort is made to understand this contradictory character in terms of the party's class location with respect to the white dominating classes and leading elements within it; in relation to the black dominated classes; as well as in terms of the liberal tradition within which the Party operated.

  • Analysing National Freedom Party V Electoral Commission and Another
    afrika focus — Volume 33, Nr. 1, 2020 — pp. 49-58 IMPLICATIONS OF THE FAILURE TO PAY THE REQUIRED ELECTORAL DEPOSIT IN SOUTH AFRICA: ANALYSING NATIONAL FREEDOM PARTY V ELECTORAL COMMISSION AND ANOTHER Angelo Dube Department of Public, Constitutional and International Law, University of South Africa, South Africa The right to participate in elections is one of the cornerstones of any democratic country. This is true of South Africa’s electoral process, which was put to the test in the case of National Freedom Party v Electoral Commission in 2016. To promote free and fair elections, certain safeguards must be put in place. These include notifying the Electoral Commission of an intention to participate in elections through the payment of a deposit on a specified date by the party intending to participate in elections, and the publication of an election timetable by the government. This research has found that once published, the Electoral Commission has no power to change the electoral timetable. The only remedy for a party that fails to comply with the electoral prescripts such as the payment of an electoral deposit lies under section 11(2)(a) of the South African Local Government: Municipal Electoral Act. Additionally, it found that the concept of free and fair elections takes into account the interests of all parties concerned, and not just that of the party that alleges unfairness stemming from the exclusion. Whilst the exclusion of a party can lead to the violation of certain fundamental rights, such as the right to regular free and fair elections, and the right to vote, it is important to note that this case clearly establishes the legal position that a party’s failure to comply with the legal prescripts, will bar that political party from obtaining a remedy for exclusion.

    The African e-Journals Project has digitized full text of articles of eleven social science and humanities journals.

Find more at: http://digital.lib.msu.edu/projects/africanjournals/ Available through a partnership with Scroll down to read the article. Article Indians, Islam and the meaning of South African citizenship - A question of identities1 Goolam Vahed Durban's Indian Muslims are heirs to Islamic traditions and practices in India that became firmly established in South Africa. During the past decade they experienced rapid and dramatic changes. These reflect adjustments to the political changes that have taken place in South Africa, as well as the increasingly invasive role of global material culture in everyday life. This has caused unease and concern amongst many Muslims. This is not unique to Muslims or even to South Africa. Crawford Young has pointed out that there is no justification for clinging to the belief that modernisation leads 'ineluctably to deepening levels of attachment to the nation defined by the state of residence or to the erosion of cultural ethnos, race or religion separate from the nation-state unit'. On the contrary, social change tends to produce 'stronger communal identities. In addition, the cultural segments themselves are subject to evolution and change in the crucible of social process and political competition' (Young 1998:3). This paper examines developments among Durban's Indian Muslims, especially after 1994. In particular it examines how they have reacted to these forces. There is a tendency on the part of many observers and commentators to lump them together with the Western Cape based Muslim group, People Against Gangsterism and Drugs (Pagad).

    Household Selection Procedure Start your walk pattern from the starting point indicated on the EA map. For each interview start walking in a different direction from the starting point. In other words: for the 1st interview walk in a northerly direction from the starting point, for the 2nd interview walk in the direct opposite direction (i.e. South), for the 3rd interview go at right angles to the direction of the 1st interview (i.e. go East or West), and for the 4th interview go in the direct opposite direction to the 3rd interview (i.e. East if you went West in the 3rd interview, or West if you went East in the 3rd interview). Use an interval of 10 houses between your starting point and the first house that you visit. If a call is unsuccessful, use the table below to record your progress until you make a successful call. Circle a code number for unsuccessful calls only. Continue walking and going to every 10 th house until you have a successful interview.
