Afrikaner Identity: Diversity Among the Right.

Louw-Potgieter, J.; Giles, H.

Journal of Multilingual and Multicultural Development, v8 n3 p283-92 1987

Language is an important part of ethnic identity, but not the only one. Two groups of Afrikaners, 23 members of the National Party and 15 members of the Afrikaner Resistance Movement, responded to a questionnaire concerning characteristics essential for Afrikaner group membership. Culture and background were also perceived essential. (Author/LMO)
