Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An examination of the role played by civil society in the legitimisation of South Africa's apartheid regime and its racial policy. This book focuses on the interaction of dominant groups within the Dutch Reformed Church and the South African state over the development of race policy within the broader context of state-civil society relations. This allows a theoretical examination and typology of the variety of state-civil society relations. Additionally, the particular case study demonstrates that civil society's existence in and authoritarian situations can deter the establishment of democracy when components of civil society identify themselves with exclusive, ethnic interests.

Download or read book The Thousand Generation Covenant Dutch Reformed Covenant Theology and Group Identity in Colonial South Africa 1652 1814 written by Gerstner and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2021-12-06 with total page 292 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study presents the religious factor in the development of a separatistic group identity among the forebears of the Afrikaners during the Dutch colonial period of South African history. Dutch Reformed covenant theology and baptism practice rooted in the thousand generation covenant theory helped to shape this self-understanding. It traces the basic developments of covenant theology in the Netherlands during the period and demonstrates how these concepts were conveyed to colonial South Africa. The dominant strain of covenantal thought treated the entire community as redeemed and called to be separate. It was presented through a variety of means through which virtually every colonist was exposed. This study offers a balanced historical approach to the role of theological concepts in the colonial roots of Afrikaner group identity. It answers traditional scholarship in the field which either directly identify the concepts behind the development of apartheid with Calvinist theology or, more recently, deny that the Reformed faith had any role in the development of apartheid ideology until the twentieth century.

COLLISION WITH THE CIVIL COURTS. THE CASE OF DARLING.* Since the days of the Synod of Dort, it had been customary in the Church of Holland, at one of the Sabbath services, to take a portion of the Heidelberg Catechism, one of its standards, for the subject of discourse from the pulpit. The Catechism is divided into fiftytwo portions, one appropriated to each Sabbath of the year. The custom was to take some portion of the word of God bearing on the subject as text, and then, in connection with * In describing this case and the following, we have to acknowledge much indebtedness to "A Statement of the Case between the Rev. T. F. Burgers and the Synodical Commission of the Dutch Reformed Church." Capetown, N. H. Marais, 1866. that, to expound the teaching of the Catechism. With the reign of neology in Holland, it became customary simply to read the question and answer, and then in preaching to take no further notice of it, and latterly even openly to combat the doctrines it contained. The Rationalistic teaching of Holland has, during recent years, found its way to South Africa, through means of students from the Cape studying at her universities, and in other ways. In consequence of this, a proposal came under discussion in the Synod of 1862, that "the Synod declare that the preaching on the Catechism is to be understood as an exposition of the questions and answers, and a defence of the same on the ground of the Word of God." In the course of the discussion the minister of Darling, Mr. Kotze," opposed the motion, denied the principle that the minister was bound by the doctrines of the Catechism, and referred for illustration to the 60th question of the Catechism. He said "that the words in the first part of the answer, 'and am...

Download or read book Reforming Memory written by Robert Vosloo and published by AFRICAN SUN MeDIA. This book was released on 2017-10-12 with total page 299 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although we should acknowledge the fragility of memory, we should nevertheless affirm the remarkable ability of memory to reform and transform our identity. Our memories and ways of remembering are, however, often marked by trauma and violence. Memory, therefore, not merely reforms; it too is in need of reformation, redemption and transformation. With this emphasis in mind, Reforming Memory grapples with the question what a responsible engagement with the past entails, also for Christians and churches associated with the Reformed tradition. The history of Reformed churches in South Africa is, one can argue, a deeply divided and ambivalent one. The same figures are heroes to some and villains to others; historic events are deeply ambiguous and conflicting views surround different discourses. Yet the histories, and perhaps futures, of these churches and traditions are inextricably interwoven. Reforming Memory fundamentally combines an interest in the notion of "e;memory"e; with an interest in (South African) Reformed theology and history. Central is the question: how should we remember and represent the past responsibly? The essays collected in this book engage in different ways with this question, attending in the process to some episodes in the history of the Dutch Reformed Church, some influential Reformed theologians, and some important Reformed practices and confessional documents.
