Civil Resistance in South Africa: 1970s and 1980sIntroduction (not examinable)
The nature of the Apartheid State
What does Apartheid include?
● The migrant labour system
● Social engineering (building a segregated society)
● Job reservation (the colour bar)
● Land dispossession
Job Reservation
● Civilised labour policy
○ Skilled vs non-skilled labour
➢ Skilled and semi-skilled jobs reserved for whites
● Black people are willing to work because of Taxes
● NP’s aims
● A white South Africa
● Cheap labour
● Want to make sure black people only live in cities for work (influx control)
● 1936- 1945: WWII
● Black men and women work because white men are fighting
● WWII was the reason the NP came into power because they appealed to
Afrikaans nationalism
Petty Apartheid
● Separate/ segregated social, economic and political facilities
○ E.g black and white benches
● Without this Apartheid would fall apart (if people can interact on an equal level
how can they justify things like land dispossession and job reservation)
● Apartheid rooted in the economic system
● Provided economic benefit to the ruling class
Afrikaaner Nationalist/ liberal approach
● Strong aversion to black people
● Wanted to be ensured of supervisory jobs in every enterprise
● Believed in white supremacy
Radical Approach
● Create a reservoir of black labour by forcing taxes on Africans so they would
have to find jobs in the mines
● Black workers could not get citizenship or any rights
