  • Alcohol Misuse in Patients Attending a Defence Force General Medical Clinic
    Original Research Alcohol misuse in patients attending a defence force general medical clinic Bekker D, MBChB, MFamMed Van Velden DP, MBChB, MPraxMed Department of Family Medicine, University of Stellenbosch Correspondence: Dr D Bekker, 3 Grobler Street, Aurora Durbanville, 7550 Tel: 021-5902635, e-mail: [email protected] Keywords: alcohol misuse; Alcohol Use Disorders Identification Test (AUDIT); general medical practice; defence force; prevalence Abstract Aim.: To determine the prevalence of alcohol misuse in adult patients attending a defence force general practice clinic. Design: Descriptive cross-sectional survey. Methods: The setting is a military sickbay situated in the Cape Town metropolitan area, South Africa. Participants included all adult patients (³ð18 years) attending the clinic during a three week period midyear. The Alcohol Use Disorders Identification Test (AUDIT) questionnaire was completed by patients. Two direct alcohol consumption questions were added determining the total drinks per week as well as the maximum number of drinks per occasion. Results: Of the 658 patients approached, 40 (6%) declined to fill in the questionnaire. 42% of the 618 patients surveyed were female and 58% were male with an average age of 41 years. The group consisted of 44% current defence force members, 25% retired defence force members, 22% medical dependents and 7% civilians. The overall rate of alcohol misuse according to the AUDIT-questionnaire was 13,27%. Among male patients, 20,6% scored as misusers of alcohol, compared with 2,7% among females. A much higher level of misuse was also found under younger age groups. 38,1% of male apprentices at the technical college and 40,0% of male current defence force members staying on the base scored 8 or more on the AUDIT.

  • 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.

He has without failure, given me the strength to carry on. My sincere thanks to the Department of Criminology, University of South Africa, for affording me the opportunity to complete this study. I am indebted to my supervisor Professor Herman Conradie, for his insightful comments that opened up new perspectives that allowed me to explore avenues I would not have considered; and for his undying encouragement. To my husband, Mbongiseni Tshabalala, for taking the time to read various versions and offer valuable comments. I would not have completed this study without his support, his encouragement, and his dedication to the family. To all the respondents, for agreeing to be part of this research and for allowing themselves to re-live through some of the experiences they would rather block out. To my sisters and my mother, who stepped into my maternal role whenever I needed them. They remain a source of strength and security when I stand on shifting ground. To Rear Admiral Green, for allowing me to complete the work and still be sane. To my best friends, Ms Nonhlanhla Makhanda and Ms.

  • Effective Public Relations in a Transformed Organisation: Naval Base Simon’S Town As a Case Study
    EFFECTIVE PUBLIC RELATIONS IN A TRANSFORMED ORGANISATION: NAVAL BASE SIMON’S TOWN AS A CASE STUDY by J.D.J. Theunissen Thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the Degree of Master of Public Administration (MPA) at the University of Stellenbosch Study Leader: Prof J.J. Muller March 2002 Stellenbosch University http://scholar.sun.ac.za/ DECLARATION I, the undersigned, hereby declare that the work contained in this thesis 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 Stellenbosch University http://scholar.sun.ac.za/ SUMMARY Public Relations is a discipline where the basic concepts and functions remain the same, be it in a public or private organisation. It is ultimately a staff function, which is responsible for effective two-way communication between an organisation and its publics, both internal and external. With the transformation in the Department of Defence and ultimately the South African National Defence Force (SANDF), major changes took place structurally as well as in terms of the execution of functions on the operational level where Naval Base Simon’s Town (NB Smst) is one of the new General Support Bases of the SANDF. The Public Relations Section of NB Smst must deliver public relations services to the clients of NB Smst. The purpose of this study is to establish whether the services that the Public Relations Section delivers to its clients are in line with the expectations of the clients. An in-depth study is made of the theory of public relations, starting with the overall concept of communication.
