    THE ROLE AND APPLICATION OF THE UNION DEFENCE FORCE IN THE SUPPRESSION OF INTERNAL UNREST, 1912 - 1945 Andries Marius Fokkens Thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Military Science (Military History) at the Military Academy, Saldanha, Faculty of Military Science, Stellenbosch University. Supervisor: Lieutenant Colonel (Prof.) G.E. Visser Co-supervisor: Dr. W.P. Visser Date of Submission: September 2006 ii Declaration I, the undersigned, hereby declare that the work contained in this thesis is my own original work and that I have not previously submitted it, in its entirety or in part, to any university for a degree. Signature:…………………….. Date:………………………….. iii ABSTRACT The use of military force to suppress internal unrest has been an integral part of South African history. The European colonisation of South Africa from 1652 was facilitated by the use of force. Boer commandos and British military regiments and volunteer units enforced the peace in outlying areas and fought against the indigenous population as did other colonial powers such as France in North Africa and Germany in German South West Africa, to name but a few. The period 1912 to 1945 is no exception, but with the difference that military force was used to suppress uprisings of white citizens as well. White industrial workers experienced this military suppression in 1907, 1913, 1914 and 1922 when they went on strike. Job insecurity and wages were the main causes of the strikes and militant actions from the strikers forced the government to use military force when the police failed to maintain law and order.

    Half a Century of South African “Border War'' Literature: a Historiographical Exploration

    André Wessels Senior Professor, HALF A CENTURY Department of History, OF SOUTH AFRICAN Faculty of the Humanities, University of the “BORDER WAR’’ LITERATURE: Free State and a Visiting Professor, University of A HISTORIOGRAPHICAL New South Wales at the Australian Defence Force EXPLORATION Academy, Canberra. E-mail: wesselsa@ufs. ac.za Abstract Half a century ago, in 1966, the so-called “Border War” broke out in DOI: https://dx.doi. what was then called South-West Africa (SWA) – known as Namibia org/10.18820/24150509/ after gaining independence in 1990. It was the most comprehensive, JCH42.v2.2 costly and traumatic of all the apartheid wars, and although it focused on SWA/Namibia, the conflict spilled over into Angola and Zambia, ISSN 0258-2422 (Print) and should also be viewed in relation to the role played by the then ISSN 2415-0509 (Online) South African Defence Force (SADF) in Rhodesia/Zimbabwe and in Journal for Contemporary Mozambique. While the War for Southern Africa (1966-1989) was History being fought, a number of books on the conflict were published. In the 2017 42(2):24-47 1990s, while South Africa experienced a decade of dramatic political © UV/UFS changes and concomitant transformation, not many books on the war “up north” and “on the border” were published, but from about the dawn of the new millennium, there has been a steady stream of publications (mostly in South Africa) that deal with the above- mentioned conflict. Why this renewed interest? Who are the authors? What do they write about? This article endeavours to provide answers to these and related questions by analysing half a century of “Border War” literature, primarily focusing on books published in South Africa.
