| dc.description.abstract | • Opsomming:
Hierdie artikel ondersoek die oorsake en die verloop van die
1959-1961 Pondolandse rebellie. Dit word opgevolg met 'n
evaluering van die organisasie wat daarna die leiding geneem
het, die "mountain", 'n sosiale beweging met diepgevestig in
kleinboere samelewing. Daar word betoog dat die rebellie, as
gevolg van wyd-lopende faktore 'n radikale verset was teen die
status quo en ook 'n poging was om 'n vinnig verdwynende
lewenswyse te behou. | |

This article evaluates the course and causes of the 1959-1961
Pondoland rebellion. This is followed by an assessment of the
organization that emerged to lead it, the "Mountain", a social
movement deeply rooted in peasant society. It is argued that, as
the product of a wide range of forces, the rebellion represented
both a radical attack on the status quo and an attempt to
preserve a fast-vanishing way of life. This is a provisional
account, which, it is hoped, will serve to stimulate further debate
on the nature of peasant resistance in modern South Africa. | |
