Abstract

The nature of the Cape 'liberal' tradition has long posed problems for historians. It can be regarded, in broad terms, as a particular approach to parliamentary government in the South African context, an important defining element being the attitude held by those who claimed to be adherents towards "native policy" and the franchise. That the extent of that 'liberalism' on the question of race policies was often suspect, has been clearly shown in recent years.
