Description

This new approach to the social history of Afrikaner nationalism looks into the rise of a political movement to shaped South African history profoundly during the 20th Century. The nationalist symbol of the ox wagon was used not only by the National Party, but also by the extra- and antiparliamentarian mass movement Ossewabrandwag, which was founded in 1939. The author discusses which ideological influences on the apartheid policy can be identified as coming from organized right-wing extremism.
