  • The Quest for Liberation in South Africa: Contending Visions and Civil Strife, Diaspora and Transition to an Emerging Democracy
    Scientia Militaria, South African Journal of Military Studies, Vol 30, Nr 2, 2000. http://scientiamilitaria.journals.ac.za The Quest for Liberation in South Africa: Contending Visions and Civil Strife, Diaspora and Transition to an Emerging Democracy Ian Liebenberg Introduction: Purpose of this contribution To write an inclusive history of liberation and transition to democracy in South Africa is almost impossible. To do so in the course of one paper is even more demanding, if not daunting. Not only does "the liberation struggle" in South Africa in its broadest sense span more than a century. It also saw the coming and going of movements, the merging and evolving of others and a series of principled and/or pragmatic pacts in the process. The author is attempting here to provide a rather descriptive (and as far as possible, chronological) look at and rudimentary outline to the main organisational levels of liberation in South Africa since roughly the 1870' s. I will draw on my own 2 work in the field lover the past fifteen years as well as other sources • A wide variety of sources and personal experiences inform this contribution, even if they are not mentioned here. Also needless to say, one's own subjectivities may arise - even if an attempt is made towards intersubjecti vity. This article is an attempt to outline and describe the organisations (and where applicable personalities) in an inclusive and descriptive research approach in See Liebenberg (1990), ldeologie in Konjlik, Emmerentia: Taurus Uitgewers; Liebenberg & Van der Merwe (1991), Die Wordingsgeskiedenis van Apartheid, Joernaal vir Eietydse Geskiedenis, vol 16(2): 1-24; Liebenberg (1994), Resistance by the SANNC and the ANC, 1912 - 1960, in Liebenberg et al (Eds.)

  • Strategic Military Colonisation: the Cape Eastern Frontier 1806 – 1872
    46 STRATEGIC MILITARY COLONISATION: THE CAPE EASTERN FRONTIER 1806–1872 Linda Robson* and Mark Oranje† Department of Town and Regional Planning, University of Pretoria Abstract The Cape Eastern Frontier of South Africa offers a fascinating insight into British military strategy as well as colonial development. The Eastern Frontier was for over 100 years a very turbulent frontier. It was the area where the four main population groups (the Dutch, the British, the Xhosa and the Khoikhoi) met, and in many respects, key decisions taken on this frontier were seminal in the shaping of South Africa. This article seeks to analyse this frontier in a spatial manner, to analyse how British settlement patterns on the ground were influenced by strategy and policy. The time frame of the study reflects the truly imperial colonial era, from the second British occupation of the Cape colony in 1806 until representative self- governance of the Cape colony in 1872. Introduction British colonial expansion into the Eastern Cape of Southern Africa offers a unique insight into the British method of colonisation, land acquisition and consolidation. This article seeks to analyse the British imperial approach to settlement on a turbulent frontier. The spatial development pattern is discussed in order to understand the defensive approach of the British during the period 1806 to 1872 better.

  • Phase 1 Palaeontological Impact Assessment of 2 Quarries and 6 Borrow Pits, Between Willowvale and Dwesa, EC Province
    Phase 1 Palaeontological Impact Assessment of 2 Quarries and 6 Borrow Pits, between Willowvale and Dwesa, EC Province. Report prepared for: CCS Environmental Consultants. Dr Lloyd Rossouw PO Box 38806 Langenhovenpark 9330 Executive Summary A Phase 1 Palaeontological Impact Assessment was carried out at a two quarries and six borrow pit sites between Willowvale and Dwesa in the Eastern Cape. Quarry 1 and 2 are exclusively doleritic and therefore not palaeontologically significant. Borrow Pit 1 and 3 are located in Adelaide Subgroup strata, while an intrusive dolerite outcrop (dyke) and Adelaide Subgroup metasediments are represented at Borrow Pit 2. Borrow Pits 4, 5 and 6 are located in older Ecca Group strata. No fossils or trace fossils were located near or in the vicinity of the borrow pits during the baseline survey. The survey of exposed strata has indicated no evidence for potential palaeontological impact. There is no indication for the accumulation and preservation of intact fossil material within the Quaternary sediments (topsoils) covering the underlying sedimentary rocks. 2 Introduction At the request of Control Civil Services, a Palaeontological Impact Assessment was carried out along designated areas between Willowvale and Dwesa in the Eastern Cape with the aim to investigate six borrow pit localities and two quarries that will be utilized to maintain and rehabilitate the gravel road infrastructure in the region. The survey is required as a prerequisite for new development in terms of the National Environmental Management Act and is also called for in terms of the National Heritage Resources Act 25 of 1999. In terms of Section 38 of the National Heritage Resources Act 25 of 1999 the survey is required as a prerequisite for any development which will change the character of a site exceeding 5 000 m2 in extent.
