Abstract
This paper seeks to examine the circumstances surrounding the rise of a segregationist ideology in South Africa during the decade after the Boer War, culminating in the Natives’ Land Act of 1913. In tracing this development, the approach is essentially one of establishing a relationship between the underlying structures that made segregation materially possible and the cleavages within the white political system that increasingly drove the polity towards an ideology of segregation.
