Additional Information
This book tells the full story of the secret Afrikaner Broederbond the elitist Brotherhood of power controlling the social, political and religious destiny of South Africa. It was the most powerful body in South Africa; its 12,000 members secretly organized in 800 cells are ruthlessly conscious of the need for Afrikaner survival - at all costs. No one can understand South Africa without a knowledge of the Bond. Under Apartheid, the Prime Ministers were Broederbonders. Yet a humble shoemaker in a small country village was too. Little is known by the general public about the Broederbond, which played a decisive role in shaping the history of Afrikaner Nationalism, culminating in the National Party election victory of 1948 which led to the creation of the apartheid state. To understand the true character of Afrikanerdom, to interpret the soul of Afrikaner Nationalism, it is essential to understand the Bond's nature, philosophy, actions, methods and machinations. This book lays bare the soul of the Broederbond and the Afrikaner. It is based on secret Broederbond documents circulars, study documents, minutes of annual conferences and of executive meetings and on the experience of J.H.P. Serfontein who for 12 years investigated the Bond in his capacity as SA's leading political journalist. It reveals the close, secret relationship between Afrikaner politicians and church, cultural, economic, and academic leaders. It shows that hardly any important decision in the mid-20th century years had been taken by the SA Government without prior consultation with the Broederbond, or its leaders. Indeed, not a single facet of life in South Africa is not directly or indirectly affected by the secret plans and aims of the Broederbond. Brotherhood of Power is compulsory and compelling reading for all who wish to understand the thought of the ruling Afrikaner tribe of less than three million people, who through their dominating position, influenced the destiny and lives of fifty million others in Southern Africa.
