  • Opposition Party Mobilization in South Africa's Dominant
    UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA Los Angeles Eroding Dominance from Below: Opposition Party Mobilization in South Africa’s Dominant Party System A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree Doctor of Philosophy in Political Science by Safia Abukar Farole 2019 © Copyright by Safia Abukar Farole 2019 ABSTRACT OF THE DISSERTATION Eroding Dominance from Below: Opposition Party Mobilization in South Africa’s Dominant Party System by Safia Abukar Farole Doctor of Philosophy in Political Science University of California, Los Angeles, 2019 Professor Kathleen Bawn, Chair In countries ruled by a single party for a long period of time, how does political opposition to the ruling party grow? In this dissertation, I study the growth in support for the Democratic Alliance (DA) party, which is the largest opposition party in South Africa. South Africa is a case of democratic dominant party rule, a party system in which fair but uncompetitive elections are held. I argue that opposition party growth in dominant party systems is explained by the strategies that opposition parties adopt in local government and the factors that shape political competition in local politics. I argue that opposition parties can use time spent in local government to expand beyond their base by delivering services effectively and outperforming the ruling party. I also argue that performance in subnational political office helps opposition parties build a reputation for good governance, which is appealing to ruling party ii. supporters who are looking for an alternative. Finally, I argue that opposition parties use candidate nominations for local elections as a means to appeal to constituents that are vital to the ruling party’s coalition.

  • Reply: 'Too Colonial' Cape Town City Ballet Finds New Home
    29 March 2017 Re: ‘Too colonial’ Cape Town City Ballet finds new home Good day, Your article titled “‘Too colonial’ Cape Town City Ballet finds new home” refers. The article claims that Cape Town City Ballet (CTCB) was “kicked out of its Base at the University of Cape Town for being “too colonial”” and reports this as a fact. This is, in fact, the second time this claim has Been reported as a fact By Times Media. Despite this claim, UCT was not offered the right to reply in an article that turned out to be unbalanced and unfair. In NovemBer 2016, a different journalist claimed that CTCB was “booted out of its University of Cape Town premises Because Ballet is “Eurocentric and colonial””. UCT provided a detailed response to this claim, which we are again providing. There is certainly no truth to the claim that “#FeesMustFall protesters demanded that the ballet company Be removed from UCT last year” as reported in this latest article. UCT’s lease agreement with CTCB for studio space expired on 31 December 2016. The lease had been under discussion for almost two years, as UCT had already been taking in larger numBers in our dance courses – which include classical Ballet, as well as choreographic studies and dance teaching methods. The space constraints for UCT dance courses had already reached a tipping point as early as 2014. At the Beginning of 2016, UCT took the proactive step of approaching the Cape Town municipality aBout the possiBle use of an alternate venue for CTCB. Discussions around the lease agreement, and UCT’s steps to proactively arrive at a possiBle solution, Began long Before the spate of protests on campus last year.

  • The Role and Application of the Union Defence Force in the Suppression of Internal Unrest, 1912 - 1945
    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.
