 SECTION A: SOURCE-BASED QUESTIONS

 QUESTION 1:         HOW WAS AFRIKANER NATIONALISM ENTRENCHED IN SOUTH
                     AFRICA BETWEEN 1910 AND 1948?

 SOURCE 1A

 This source explains the Afrikaners’ concern with regards to their language.

 After 1910, many Afrikaans speaking people gravitated to urban centres. There they
 increasingly spoke English and become more Anglicised. This created a fear that the
 Afrikaans language might dissolve.

 The leaders of the Afrikaans-speaking community feared that this rapid and widespread
 urbanisation would bring Anglicisation of the entire Afrikaans-speaking white population.
 Individuals united to form voluntary associations in the Transvaal, Free State and Cape in
 order to agitate for official recognition of Afrikaans.

 Committed leaders of this language movement were found mostly among younger
 generation Dutch Reformed clergy, journalists and students. These language enthusiasts
 sought to preserve their home language, but even more, they were desperately concerned
 with the survival of Afrikanerdom.

                       [From The rise of Afrikanerdom: Power, Apartheid and the Afrikaner Civil Religion]

 SOURCE 1B

 This source explains how the Afrikaners applied pressure on the National Party to
 formalise a policy towards resolving race relations in South Africa.

 Afrikaners were deeply worried about the state of race relations. Nearly all believed that
 the state should do more to maintain white supremacy and the purity of the white race.
 They differed as to how that should be done. Farmers and businesspeople wanted
 unimpeded access to African labour, combined with stringent government controls over
 its allocation and discipline. By contrast, Afrikaner workers wanted greater protection from
 African competition – an attitude that harmonised with the ideas of intellectuals who were
 developing a blueprint for a complete economic and political segregation.

 SOURCE 1C

 This source describes the new economic forces among the Afrikaners in 1939.

 This group recognised that in the era of finance capitalism and in a country like South
 Africa, where economic life is so dominated by few financial grants, the development of
 the independent small and medium enterprises was subject to the severe limitations. Thus
 the only way to real economic power and to a share in the super-profits of the monopoly
 lay in the co-ordination of the limited resources of the Afrikaner capitalist class as a whole.
 Such a co-ordination of economic resources was provided by the Reddingsdaadbond at
 a crucial stage in the historical development of Afrikaner capitalism.
 Inevitably, the degree of economic centralisation involved in this policy resulted in the
 concentration of the economic power in a very few hands. The pooling of the economic
 resources gave enormous power to the tiny minority who had in effect control of these
 resources.

 The spread of the chauvinistic (narrow-minded) propaganda of Afrikaner Nationalism was
 expected to induce an increasing number of Afrikaners to invest their savings and surplus
 capital with Afrikaans financial institutions, to take out policies with Afrikaans insurance
 companies, to build their homes through an Afrikaans building society and to do their
 shopping at Afrikaans shops.

 QUESTION 2:         HOW DID THE SIX-DAY WAR OF 1967 ADD TO THE TENSIONS IN
                     THE MIDDLE EAST?

 SOURCE 2A

 This source focuses on the causes of the war between Israel and its neighbouring
 states.

 The United Nations were unable to keep the peace for long. Eleven years after the Suez
 War another war erupted. Israel had continued to build up its armed forces by purchasing
 supplies from Britain, France, the USA and West Germany; the Arab states were supplied
 by the USSR.

 Despite the presence of the United Nations, border skirmishes continued between the
 Israelis and Palestinian guerrilla groups. Groups such as Fatah and the Palestine
 Liberation Organisation were a constant problem for the Israeli security forces and those
 who lived in settlements near the borders.

 By 1967, Nasser felt that the Arab forces were strong enough to defeat Israel. In May,
 Nasser ordered the UN forces out of Egypt and he then closed the Gulf of Aqaba to Israel,
 blockading the port of Eilat. There were also troop movements near Israel's borders with
 Lebanon, Syria, and Jordan (whose forces were supplemented by Iraqi, Saudi Arabian
 and Algerian troops).

 SOURCE 2B

 This extract focuses on the causes of the Six Day War of 1967 in the Middle East

 Israel’s invasion of Sinai in 1956 was the second major conflict between the Arabs and
 Israelis. The third took place in 1967 and is known as the Six Days War. As in 1956, the
 initiative again came from Israel, but as in 1956 Israel once gain feared that it did not
 attack first it would lose the advantage. Events during the early months of 1967 suggested
 that the Arab states were building up major for a attack. Syrian forces increased their
 shelling of Israeli settlements on the Golan Heights. Nasser moved up troops to the Sinai
 border and asked the UN to remove its peacekeeping forces from both Sinai and the Gaza
 strip. As in 1956, Israeli shipping was obstructed in the Gulf of Aqaba.

 Israel’s response, organised by its new Defence Minister, Moshe Dayan, was a series of
 lightning raids on all its enemies. Arab airfields were destroyed. Israel forces advanced
 simultaneously against Egypt, Jordan and Syria. The Egyptians were driven right back
 across the Sinai desert as far as the east bank of the Suez Canal. Jordan lost the west
 bank of the River Jordan. Syria was driven out of the Golan Heights. Shattered by the
 overwhelming superiority of the Israeli forces, all three countries had agreed to ceasefires
 within six days of the original Israeli attack.

 SOURCE 2D

 This is an extract from the U.N Security Council Resolution 242, 22 November 1967.

 Following the June ’67, Six-Day war, the situation in the Middle East was discussed by
 the U.N General Assembly, which referred the issue to the Security Council. After lengthy
 discussion, a final draft for a Security Council resolution was presented by the British
 Ambassador Lord Caradon, on November 22 1967. It was adopted on the same day.

 Resolution 242 establishes three principles about the territorial aspect of the peace-
 making process:

 1)     Israel can occupy and administer the territories it occupied during the Six Day
        war until the Arabs make peace
 2)     When peace agreements are reached, they should delineate ‘secure and
        recognised’ boundaries to which Israel would withdraw
 3)     Those boundaries could differ from the Armistice boundaries of 1949.
 4)     In addition, it called for Israel to look at ‘achieving a just settlement of the refugee
        problem’

 QUESTION 3: HOW DID THE BANTU EDUCATION OF 1953 CHANGE THE LIVES
             OF BLACK STUDENTS IN THE 1950s?

 SOURCE 3A

 This source deals with the birth of ‘Bantu education’ by the National Party Government.

 Hendrik Verwoerd, the newly appointed Minister of Native Affairs took the following
 steps …

 The first step of his Bantu Education Bill was to remove control of African education from
 the provinces to his own department. Then, by reducing government aid to the mission
 schools, he forced most of them into the state system.

 His department also assumed responsibility for the employment and training of African
 teachers. Said Verwoerd: ‘The Bantu teacher serves the Bantu community and his salary
 must be fixed accordingly.’ Thus, a black teacher in 1953 earned just over 2 pounds a
 week rising to 7 pounds after 13 years. The result was a dramatic drop in the number of
 trainee teachers.

 Verwoerd explained that Africans had to be measured by different standards: ‘The school
 he said, ‘must equip the Bantu to meet the demands which the economic life … Will
 impose on him ... ’
                                 [From Illustrated History of South Africa, Readers Digest, third edition]

 SOURCE 3B

 The extract below has been adapted from R.Mulholland, South Africa 1948–1994 and
 deals with the value of work done by missionary schools.

 No policy of free and compulsory education for all children had existed in South Africa
 before apartheid. This meant that the work of the missionary schools was even more
 important and they produced many fine graduates (including Nelson Mandela and Oliver
 Tambo). These schools often trained their own teachers and were not regulated
 (controlled) by the government. They taught liberal values (equality, democracy, fairness)
 and all lessons were in English.

 The demand for places at these schools outnumbered the places available. In 1953
 Verwoerd, then Minister of Education, introduced the Bantu Education Act. Under this Act
 all children were to be taught in their ‘home’ language until the eighth year of school. Black
 children were given a different syllabus from that taught in white schools and all schools,
 including mission schools were to be continued by the government.

 SOURCE 3C

 This Extension of Universities Act of 1959 made it a criminal offence for a non-white
 student to register at a hitherto open university without the written consent of the Minister
 of Internal Affairs.

 It also "provided for the establishment of a series of new ethnically-based institutions for
 Blacks, together with separate universities for Coloureds and Indians" (Christopher 1994:
 152). "The Afrikaans-medium universities – Potchefstroom, Pretoria, Orange Free State
 and (after Afrikaans had become an established language) Stellenbosch – had from their
 foundation restricted admission to whites. Of the English-medium universities, Rhodes
 was all-white and Fort Hare in practice non-white; the remaining three, while more open,
 were by no means fully multi-racial. Natal admitted non-whites, but kept its classes racially
 segregated. Cape Town and Witwatersrand admitted students to courses without regard
 to race but applied a strict colour bar in social and sporting events". New universities were
 established at Bellville in the Western Cape for Coloureds, Ngoye in Zululand for Zulus,
 Durban in Natal for Indians, Turfloop in Transvaal for the Sotho-Tswana population, while
 Fort Hare (formerly, Lovedale Mission College) became restricted to Xhosas.
